Elite Soccer Camp

Elite Camp is our highest-level camp for middle and elementary aged players. The camp has a half and full day option for players born with birth years 2017 - 2010, broken into groups based on age & ability.
The purpose of this camp is to bring top players together to train at a higher level.

This is not your typical “summer soccer camp.” Players will be pushed, but the environment will be fun and dynamic.

- Beating a player 1v1
- Speed of Play
- Possession with a purpose – scoring goals
- Finishing and Discovering that ‘Finishing Touch’

Speed Camp 1
For FP players (BY 2008-2013) or by invitation
Speed Camp 1 - June 24 - 28, 2024 - 9am-12pm
-
Players learn and practice explosive moves and strength training to prepare for top level competition. Just being fast and strong means nothing unless you learn to **play** with SPEED.
Extensive time will be spent helping players learn how explosiveness and strength applies to the technical side of the game.
Once the technical side is worked on, players must apply the skills to decision making and execution in the game - players will be put through demanding and competitive sessions to push them to vastly increase their speed of play.
Take your game to the next level with SPEED!
This camp is only for players that really want to learn and improve and is open to both keepers and field players.
We will have fun, but the expectations will be very high.
If players want to sign up for Footy Fanatics in the afternoon, they can bring a lunch and stay right at the park. Coaches will be there on their lunch break to supervise.

This camp is open to all serious players born in 2008-2013.
Dutch Touch camp will be a high quality, small-scale camp based upon the influences of the Dutch on this beautiful game. We will center our plans on many of the technical and tactical training sessions that we have learned in all the years that we have traveled to Holland to train. Our coaching staff have been inspired by many of the sessions we’ve had with top European clubs and academies such as Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Feyenoord and the KNVB coaches we’ve worked with.
Focus will be on new and innovative ways to make players to be technically better, more skillful in the way they view the game and improve their game to be the best player possible.
This is a challenging camp designed for serious players.
