We don't do a boot camp, but the National Guard comes twice during the summer and does a work out with the kids. It's mostly body weight type calisthenics activities like bear crawls and such.
I am not a huge fan of it because the guy that runs it yells at them and talks about winning the war and destroying the opponent and it gets a little weird. The kids seem to enjoy. It tests them and at the end they feel like they accomplished something together so it's not too bad.

I've been part of programs that have done this, but it was just prior to spring practice. We used it as a team building/leadership opportunity for the kids.
What are you looking to get out of it? We've done it several ways. Before school & after school. Tough physically & tough mentality.
