"U.K. International Soccer" Summer Camp Overview

The U.K. International Soccer Camp provides the most unique, fun soccer experience for any child who loves soccer! The U.K. International Soccer Camp is the most popular soccer camp in the country. U.K. International has been conducting soccer summer camps for over 20 years. 120,000 campers participated in 3,500 camps last summer throughout the U.S. The Coaches are all British which gives the program a unique experience. Each coach is certified, screened, and background checked to ensure a safe environment for the kids. There is a limited camper to coach ratio to ensure maximum attention to each camper. Their experienced staff has studied the game at all levels and have identified the key techniques and skills that players should work on in a fun and positive atmosphere. The Coaches love soccer and want the campers to enjoy and love playing and having fun and learning all at the same time. The Coaches make teaching so much fun, the campers don’t realize how much they are learning.

Each day the coaches will take the players through an age appropriate progressive series of fun skill building practices from unopposed, to opposed, game related and finally into a game.
