Don't be "that guy" that goes for the personal attack just because you feel it's your right. It's this nonsense thst prevents a lot of people from posting...really muddy's the whole forum concept...too bad. As fir the personal attack ob my ability to behave like an adult...not taking the bait...

Thx
What age group is your DD? I think SMU is a good day camp for the younger kids, but once your DD is more skilled and in competitive soccer you would probably want something more challenging. But yes, for a fun camp, close to home it should be a good experience.
Another suggestion I would make: If your daughter is an 05 or younger (so still in academy after July 1st) it might be worth your time to try some of the camps run by clubs. You can get a feel for some of the coaches at Solar, DeFeeters, AYSES, or whomever you want by attending one of their camps.

And she certainly won't be greatly improved in 5 days.
If your DD is an average or new select player or, dare I say it, a REC player....
then yes, I guarantee you can learn enough in 5 days to become a much improved player.
Now, will you leave the camp that much better? Maybe. Probably not.
But you will leave with the knowledge to become a better player.
Your DD must take the time to practice and apply the new found skills and tactics.

They moved her up to an older and more skilled group. She worked hard to compete at that level, so I feel it was a good learning experience for her. I saw some advanced groups and some that needed more help with mastering basic skills. The camp is only as good as the girls are open to it being. Same with all camps; if the girls show up to hang out and don't work out then the experience will be that. The coaches were involved and eager to teach the girls. As a parent, I enjoyed getting to watch the evening games and see she was happy. She has mentioned going again this summer. Too bad all the same friends won't be there!
we did the same and our experience was the same as yours. we would go again
