The other camp we definitely do is with Global Futbal. Jeremie is awesome, and his staff of Andy, RJ, and Robert connect well with the kids. The nice thing about their camps is you can do a six person camp.

The TCU camp mentioned before is getting better, I believe, Premier One has been asked to help run/revamp it. For a couple years, the camp was described as not challenging.

One Camp that has been highly recommended, but we haven't gone to is out of Univ of Dallas, run by no. 1 soccer schools. For us, it's a question of too many camps, not enough time and ($), and not wanting our DD to have a bad case of burn out. For under 10's going into select camps are dicey for scheduling due to Club camps and Qualifying Tourney, and tryouts.

Good Luck,

My dd did the No. 1 camp last year, it is 6 days/5 nights. They split the kids up based on age. It was her first time away from home and it was a very intense camp. It is split between keepers (her camp) and strikers. She absolutely loved it and we are already signed up again for this summer. Her skills improved greatly, but most importantly is that she learned how to learn the position (if that makes any sense). They have an extended version of the camp for kids getting ready for college. My dd was the youngest there last year and there were more HS aged kids than there were kids 4-6 grade. I highly recommend it, but it is not cheap.


Shocked $789 for the camp! That seems awfully high to me. That is for the residental camp and the comuter rate is still $589. Shocked

I like to think of it as a vacation away from my dd. An entire week without iCarly, pop music and the current drama of the week. It is worth every penny. Very Happy

Still cheaper than a week at Pine Cove.

We did the UT and SMU camp last year I wouldn't do SMU camp again.

Why is that???

I just didn't think the camp was worth the money to be blunt. It seem to be more intended for the beginner players I thought with little focus on hard work. We were expecting something like Tatu's camp where the girls got some major work everyday and focus on skills. In my opinion it was more like a kiddie camp for kids. I know several others that went and had the same opinion.

**We went to the resident one if that helps

I have heard several parents say the TCU Camp was kind of a kiddie camp too. But, also heard they are supposedly revamping the camp this year to be more focused and challenging. The SMU comment is probably valid for the younger age groups. My dd attended one year when she was with the younger players. I think it was more of a good time, but she begged to go back. Once she was grouped with the older players, the SMU keeper camp is very intense. The keepers do their thing all day and then scrimmage with the field players in the evening.
We have received information on camps at Sewanee, Vanderbilt, Duke and Houston Baptist. I am curious about HB. Coach Misty Jones used to coach for the Texans. A co-worker's dd was a Texans keeper and then played for HB. Nothing but praise for this coach, program, school from them. Any info out there about their camp? They play in Div 1.
LSU also has a July camp. Any info on this camp?

When the camps are done, don't forget to send the players home with an evaluation. That way they can show their parents what they improved on and what needs work. Here are some helpful comments to get your point across. Hope it helps! Soccer Comments

For the past 2 years my oldest dd attended the Texas A & M soccer camp and it was great and well worth the money! Great training and an awesome atmosphere for the dd's!!

IMHO~ My other dd went to TCU soccer camp last summer and it was a total waste of money! It was a chaotic mess from beginning to end!
