Champions Camps are for serious soccer players who wish to improve their individual skills and knowledge of the game while experiencing the total camp adventure. Soccer Academy has conducted Champion Camps for over twenty years and has tailored its programs to meet the needs of the individual player and team.
Whether attending a Champions Camp as an individual, with a group of friends or as a member of a team, each player is challenged in an age-appropriate program. The camp is organized into three Schools of Soccer Excellence - Intermediate, Advanced and The Academy:
Intermediate Schools: Stress technical training with "fast footwork", ball control skills, heading and shooting. Players progress to the basics of team play and tactics with emphasis on creativity and playing under pressure.
Advanced Schools: Refine the players’ technical training, specifically 1 v 1 skills and ball possession, while teaching combination play, small group tactics and the principles of team play. Players also learn about fitness training, nutrition and game preparation.
The Academy: For high school players who require a greater challenge. While continuing to improve technical skills and tactical knowledge, The Academy also teaches the responsibilities of the player’s functional position and more advanced concepts of team play.
Within these Schools of Excellence, players are further organized by gender and playing ability to form training groups. These groups will play matches in the evening against other teams of similar ability.
Goalkeepers: Are invited to the Champions Camps to attend our Goalkeeper Programs. These half-day and full-day programs are described in the Goalkeeper Academy section.
