This is a great camp for aspiring goalkeepers, and ALL field players, who want to improve their overall soccer techniques. Our low staff-to-player ratio of 5-to-1 will ensure that each player receives valuable personalized instruction.

The focus at the Individual & Goalkeeper Camp will be on small-sided games to improve the technical aspects of your play. Goalkeepers will experience advanced individual training to improve footwork, angles, shot-stopping ability, diving, distribution, and defensive organization.
