Description
For 32 years 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.
