Italian term or phrase: campus multidisciplinari
I am translating a text describing how a sports company's mission is to promote sports among children and families (and also young people), in order to encourage future generations to become more active.

I am not sure if "campus" would literally mean university campus here, or could it be another platform such as simply a "camp for the young"? Context reads:

"...organizza campus multidisciplinari di introduzione allo sport." My attempt is:

..."organises introductory multidisciplinary sports camps."

neutral  philgoddard: We know what camp means, but your references don't prove that campus means camp.

  -> charming as ever, Phil! You ignore that I replaced 'multidisciplinary' with 'multisport', that context is sports co and my quotes are both from Nike (do I have to prove that is a sportwear company?? :-) ) Not PROOF but educated guess. Smile :-)
