ACADEMY SOCCER CAMPS (AGES 8-14)
Develop Skills and Build a Passion for the Game!
The Academy Camps provide a learning and fun-filled training environment by a highly experienced professional coaching staff. The camps are growing fast (hint, hint ...satisfied past FootHolders are telling their friends!) with players attending from all across the Metropolitan Area.
Academy-style camps are based on teaching the fundamental aspects of the game. The objectives are to teach technical skills, ball mastery (confidence with the ball), problem solving, new relationships, and good sportsmanship. In addition, players will also learn the importance of starting their own "street soccer" games, as they will be expected to set up and organize these games at the beginning of each camp day.
All Academy-style camps contain an age-appropriate Performance Training Component focused on balance, strength, agility, and movement education. These camps are mainly for younger players (ages U8-U14), and cater to instilling passion for the game while learning new skills.
All Academy Camps run 9:00 am - 12:00 pm and cost $140.
