How to Find Capital University Athletics Camps and Awards on the Site

The Capital University athletics site (athletics.capital.edu) surfaces both camps and awards directly from its homepage. The homepage is organized into labeled sections—Top Slideshow, Top Stories, Promo, Awards, Countdown, Contentstream, Camps, Quote, and Sponsors—so you can reach camps and awards without digging through a search bar. Use this guide if you want to browse camp opportunities or see which student-athletes and teams have been recognized.

Finding Camps

Camps have their own labeled section on the homepage, which is the fastest entry point.

Steps

1. Open athletics.capital.edu in a browser.
2. Scroll past the Top scoreboard and Top Slideshow to the section blocks below the main stories.
3. Locate the Camps section.
4. Select the camp link or promo shown there to see the camp information the department is currently promoting.

Expected result: You land on the camp content the athletics department has chosen to feature, rather than a general list of every sport's camp.

Common snags

• The Camps block is easy to scroll past. It sits among several other promo-style sections (Promo, Countdown, Contentstream, Quote, Sponsors), so scan section labels rather than skimming images.
• Only featured camps appear. The homepage section reflects what is currently promoted; a sport without a featured camp may not appear there.
• Check Top Stories too. Camp announcements are sometimes published as news items, so the Top Stories area is a useful secondary check.

Finding Awards

Awards appear in more than one place on the homepage, which makes them easy to confirm.

Steps

1. From the homepage, look for the Awards section among the content blocks.
2. Review the items shown there for student-athlete and team recognition.
3. Cross-check the Top Stories section, where award announcements are often published as news.
4. If you are looking for a specific honoree, use the Main Navigation Menu to move into the relevant sport's pages, where recognition is typically covered alongside team news.

Expected result: You see the awards the department is currently highlighting, plus any award stories running in the news feed.

Common snags

• Two Awards blocks. The homepage structure lists an Awards section near the top content blocks and another near the bottom slideshow area—check both so you don't miss a recognition item.
• Awards rotate. Because these are promotional sections, older honors may drop off the homepage even though the story still exists in the news archive.

Using the Homepage Structure Efficiently

A Practical Example

Suppose a family wants to know whether Capital is running a summer camp for a particular sport and whether that program has won recent honors. Start at the Camps section to see the currently promoted camp, then check Top Stories for a camp announcement with dates and details. For the honors question, scan the Awards blocks, then open the sport's page from the Main Navigation Menu to see recognition covered in context. This sequence uses the site's own organization instead of relying on search.

What to Keep in Mind

• The homepage is a promotional surface, not a complete directory. Sections like Camps and Awards highlight what is current, so absence from the homepage does not mean a camp or award doesn't exist.
• Top Stories is the most reliable place for dated announcements, including camp registration news and award write-ups.
• The Main Navigation Menu is the route to sport-level detail when homepage promos don't answer your question.
• The site does not publish pricing or registration-fee details in the homepage sections described here, so confirm cost and eligibility on the camp page itself once you reach it.
