Schedule The camp is 3 hours per day for 5 days from June 16-20. You may choose 9-Noon or 2-5 PM. There will be coaches for beginners and returning players in both morning and afternoon sessions. The cost is $70 per player. |
|
 | Start Early Get a jump on the soccer season. Be ready to get the most out of your summer soccer experience. Be the most valuable player on your team. |
|
Beginners play as if they have already had 1-2 seasons under their belts. They dribble, pass, and control the ball like seasoned players. |  |
|
Awards There will be awards for best skilled, most improvement during camp, and best teamwork for players in the beginner group and in the advanced group in both morning and afternoon sessions. |
|
12-13 year-old players Besides the other beginners and advanced players, the afternoon session will have an additional special segment devoted to improving the play of the 12-13s. Besides the regular program, we are placing special emphasis this year on skills and teamwork in 12-13 year-old players. These players are ready to make the move to more advanced play in both offence and defense. |
|
Advanced players improve their skills: fake out opponents, lift the ball over the defense, take the ball away from attackers and begin the attack on the other goal. |  |
