Camp Philosophy
The ringing of the last school bell marks the official start of summer fun.
The last thing kids want to do is spend time learning. Especially, if they’re between the ages of 3 and 12. And we pretty much agree. Which is why at our soccer camps, kids will find a program based on soccer fundamentals, but steeped in fun. After all, these are the founding principles of the Locker Soccer Academy.
Fun is the order of the day at Locker Soccer Summer camp. We begin bright and early with a “Best Bed-Head Contest”. The contest is followed by a fun warm-up and stretch. Then it’s on to some soccer themed skills like dribbling, shooting, passing or heading. Time for a water break and some snacks to set up the final activity of the day: The World Cup game. Some days there’s a full on, organized water battle. Other days it’s “jersey of the world” contest. Each day is a little different, but every day is a blast!
Our goal is for kids to come home each day, sweaty, smiling, tired and looking forward to the next day. Happy campers. Campers that have not only had a great time in a safe environment, but having learned a soccer skill or two along the way. With the kind caring, helpful, and experienced staff that come back to teach our camps year after year, rest assured that each day we achieve our goal.
Players are grouped according to age and ability so beginners can gain confidence while learning the fundamentals of soccer and the more experienced players can enhance their skills and tactical awareness. More importantly, our camps are designed for the campers to have fun. The player’s enjoyment is our number one priority.
Summer Camp Staff:
To ensure the highest level of instruction for each camper, our quality staff will consist of our indoor coaches, many whom have been with the company for years, as well as, local college players who are specially selected based on their ability to relate positively with youth players. These coaches are excellent role models and your child will definitely enjoy building relationships with these very special, older players.
