Which one is for higher level players and more challenging? Thinking about sending our DD to one of these. Also how do they compare to the summer camps Texas A&M hosts?
Thanks in advance.
To be honest, they will tailor their program to whatever your DD's level, no matter she is 3 or 23. Name doesn't matter, the most important is remember to bring your cash. LOL

U14, going into 8th grade next year -- plays in TCL.
And I ask about the comparison to the A&M camp because although A&M is a good camp, we've always seen it as more of a "social and have fun and train w/ your friends" type camp. Looking for something a little more challenging, and where they group players based primarily on ability, not social group.

"Players are initially grouped according to age (U11/U-12, U-14, U-16), then reassigned based on ability in order to maximize development".

All I've learned is that it isn't actually run by FCD, just hosted. Still looking for feedback on it, so please share if you get anything useful.

I'd say they are very average and generally what most would expect from a massive club. Maybe the best way to categorize them are to say that they are for those that don't know any better. Just like most summer camps, they aren't realistically going to improve your kid ... too many kids, too few coaches and not enough repetition (even worse for a GK).
This (and most other club run camps) aren't much good for anything other than the experience and for something to take the place of Fortnite for a few days.
My .02 -- good luck out there

Well put....
My advice is to try and find a group of parents who want the same...and split the cost on an intimate group session or two.

We also attended a camp offered by Liverpool in the Colony and it was well run with drill stations. Price was extremely reasonable. Although we did not belong to the club, our kid was welcome and he had a great time. Other parents were very approachable and although we were asked to consider joining the club, we never felt pressured.

As far as the cost, it is comparable to other camps. We are not doing the residential camp since we live close to Toyota Stadium.
