SKILL LEVELS

Camper aged 5-9 will focus on team building, social skills, and technical skill development. The camp's emphasis is to help the youngest players foster a love of the game! Camps will include individual instruction, World Cup day and theme-based days, short-sided games, and scrimmages each day. We will also include additional soccer-themed enrichment activities throughout the three weeks such as art, Soccer story-time, and other fun!

For our campers aged 10-13 Club Level, we offer specialized training sessions and an elevated soccer camp for club-level players focused on high-level skills training for your advanced soccer player! Our coaches focus on technical development, improving tactical awareness, and increasing decision-making ability to conquer more challenging game situations.

WEEKLY FOCUS

Individual

Our coaching staff is trained with the tools to coach while instilling a growth mindset in each camper so that they focus more on their individual improvement/growth and less on competition and results. Also, to incorporate the theme of “Self” we include individual art projects and throughout the week will talk about their personal soccer stories as they relate. Art is limited to 30 minutes, so there is still plenty of time for soccer! The coaches and campers spend time during circles sharing information about themselves and also about their soccer story to start building relationships with campers. Also, we have a short reading time (about 5-7 min max) focused on learning about professional players and their soccer stories and the impact they had both in soccer and life.

Team

Each week also has a team focus and we work together to achieve common goals. Each player group comes up with their own team name and team chant. For art this week we use 30 minutes per day to collaborate to design something spectacular! We are still reading for about 5-7 minutes and are learning about different teams in the book 5 of The World’s Greatest Clubs (World Soccer Legends).

Futbol as a World Sport

Each week we have a World Cup-themed day. Campers will learn about different countries and their cultures and how soccer has helped bring people together from all over the world.
