OCR Training Camps

Next-level OCR Camps in a World-Class Facility

Prepare for the upcoming race season at Europe’s largest indoor obstacle course.

Sports Club OCR Training Camps are suitable for athletes of all levels — from those new to obstacle racing to experienced competitors preparing for elite-level events.

Located just outside Stockholm, our facility combines over 150 indoor obstacles ranging from technical rigs and carries to grip-intensive challenges and balance elements – giving you the opportunity to train every key skill required on today’s OCR race courses.

These obstacle areas are part of our 9,000 sqm training facility, which also includes a full-size swimming pool, a giant functional gym, a bouldering area, a performance testing lab and dedicated hot & cold recovery zone – allowing you to train and recover under one roof, regardless of weather conditions.

While all Sports Club OCR Training Camps share a common focus on race preparation, each camp has its own theme, training content and target group.

Specific coaching focus, session structure and performance goals may vary between camps depending on the head coach and the intended race format. Read more on the camp links below.
