HIGH POINT UNIVERSITY SOCCER CAMPS
DAY CAMP INFORMATION
Age-Appropriate Exercises: We will incorporate age-appropriate exercises into each day of our camp. Each child will be challenged to their fullest regardless of level or previous playing experience. Our staff is very sensitive to the needs and success of every level and we will make adjustments as necessary to insure a quality experience.
Technical Topics: Since technique is the foundation of the game and essential to the success of the player, we will address the following areas of the technical aspect of the game in our curriculum:
1) Dribbling 2) Passing and Receiving 3) Heading 4) Finishing
We will place the players into an environment where they are rehearsing the particular technique of the day while not under pressure so they will experience success, then place them into a match-realistic situation where they must perform them while under pressure. These match-realistic situations will require them to think and act in an environment they will see in an actual game.
Tactical Topics: Taking the technical topic of the day, we will place the players into small and large group settings to enable them to utilize each technique while learning more about the structure of the game itself. We will address the following topics where age appropriate:
1) Individual and Small Group Defending 2) Individual and Small Group Attacking 3) Transitioning
Our goal is to give the players a comprehensive experience that allows them to play the game and learn to make decisions on their own. By the end of the camp, it is our hope that the player walks away with new ideas and perspectives that they can take home with them and continue to use on a daily basis to improve their level.
