Day Camp

Description: Since 1990 the camp goal has been to help children learn and love soccer by emphasizing skill work and small-sided games. These encourage maximum touches for better control; proper form and technique; increased confidence with the ball.

Activities include a variety of skill lessons, games, and contests to keep the children interested and learning. A strong emphasis on individual instruction along with the low camper-to-counselor ratio allows campers of every level and experience - recreational to select - to enjoy and improve. Instruction includes dribbling, shooting, passing, foot skills, plus 1-v-1, ball fakes, and heading at the appropriate level. The camp is staffed by high school coaches, college, and high school players as well as other area professionals.

Additional Camp Features

  • Low camper to counselor ratio: average is 1:6
  • Camp Shirt

Description: The final step in your summer training! This Evening Camp is for boys and girls entering 8th–12th grades and preparing for the high school tryout or fall season.
