INTRUCTIONS: All phases
of soccer will be covered with the emphasis being placed on the development
of skills, techniques, and an understanding of the game. All instructors
are qualified, experienced individuals. We hope to develop in each camper
not only skills, but an understanding and love for the game of soccer.
Full-time trainers will be in attendance at all times. A complete written
evaluation will be given to each student at the end of the week's training.
GOALKEEPER TRAINING:
Small group and individual training sessions with an experienced staff will
cover all aspects of goalkeeping. Morning training sessions will focus on
the technical breakdown of diving, handling of crosses, distribution and
shot handling. Afternoon and evening sessions will put goalkeepers in
match-like situations to showcase the progress made in the technical
sessions.
RULES AND REGULATIONS:
All persons enrolled for the camp will be required to attend all training
sessions and to comply with the rules and regulations governing the camp.
Any violations are abuse of these rules and regulations and could cause
immediate dismissal from the camp without refund.
SPECIAL FEATURES: A
lighted artificial turf surface will be available for all-star night games
and extra technique training. Trophies will be awarded for league champions
and cup champions. An all-star team will be selected in each age group.
There will also be a trip to Colonial Williamsburg on Wednesday afternoon (FREE).
