DESCRIPTION: This soccer camp is an intense two days of specialized training for the serious soccer players ages 8-18 years, who have a strong desire to learn and train to be the best player that they can be. Campers will be divided into training groups based upon grade (players entering into 3rd grade-8th grade & players entering into 9th grade-12th grade).

ALL ATTACKING PLAYERS will be put through a challenging curriculum dedicated to the art of creating and scoring goals. This camp is a great opportunity for players to improve their technique, offensive skills in the attacking third, dribbling, combinations, shooting, and scoring from crosses, volleys, and headers. This is not just for forwards or attacking players, it is for any player that wants to improve their attacking ability to become more confident in front of the goal. Putting together attacking players and goalkeepers in the same camp environment enables each player to receive the amount of challenging repetitions needed around the goal in order to become more comfortable and finish chances successfully. 

GOALKEEPERS will be put through a competitive program designed to equip goalkeepers with the techniques and tactics necessary for the position and to provide opportunities to apply the skills in game situations. Morning sessions’ emphasis will be on learning the proper technique in controlled environment, while the night sessions’ emphasis will be on tactical decision making learned through small groups and match related situations. Topics include proper footwork, shot stopping, angle play, positioning, saving crosses, dead ball situations, communication, and decision making.
