Recreational Camps
Running parallel to the team training camps, we offer a multitude of summer camps designed to offer a fun and active program with the education associated with soccer. Each day has a separate topic and at the end of the 3 hour morning camp, there are 2 challenges, dependant on the age of the player.
‘Soccer Olympics’ challenge is designed for U10s where the games are team based as each player receives a certificate with either a bronze, silver or gold sticker medal for each daily event.
‘Soccer Skills Challenge’ is designed for the U12-14 age range and focuses more on their individual efforts and skills where a harder test is performed (for example, the Illinois Dribbling Test) and each participating player receives a certificate with a sticker if they passed the challenge, along with a grade and coaches comments.
Program Overview:
- Over 8 consecutive camps ran in its first year, during 2 months

Team Training Camp

Program Overview:
- In the summer of 2008 we operated over 10 team training camps
- 3 hours a day camp covering 2 topics per day
- Tailor-made with the head coach covering both Technical and Tactical options
