Yes, this is possible because the tennis, sailing, windsurfing and golf camps are from June 29 to August 17, and therefore there will already be adult supervisors at the residence dormitory. Additional accommodation is available at an extra cost, but the camper may have to change his/her room at the residence dormitory. The extra cost depends not only on the accommodation price but also on the activities scheduled for the extra days, as participants cannot be alone in the residence.
