Elite Camp

at Calvin University

The Calvin Elite Soccer Camp is becoming the premier residential soccer camp in the state of Michigan. Campers and parents choose the Calvin Elite Soccer Camp over and over not only because it offers outstanding coaching, but because the Elite Soccer Camp creates an environment that offers a truly unique experience.

The Calvin Elite Soccer Camp provides an intense, rewarding, and fun experience for campers that grows them as players, develops them as people, and creates memories that last a lifetime. The camp's unique curriculum balances instructional training sessions, developing a growth mindset and competitive match play. This combination of training, coaching, and playing helps campers transfer the skills and tactics developed into game play. Each camper is assigned to a team upon arrival at camp. The team structure allows campers to build great relationships with other campers and to have a coach that is responsible for their personal development throughout the week.

The Calvin Elite Soccer Camp offers great team competition and match play with campers from around the country attending each session of the Elite Camp.

Elite Camp starts Sunday afternoon and runs through Wednesday morning.
