The following programs will be offered:
(Please note that ages may vary depending on location. Please review the specific camp registration page for exact age ranges.)
RDS Camps | 8 - 16 years | Regional Development School (RDS) residential camps cater to competitive and elite travel team players, and feature the exclusive RDS curriculum and recognized RDS coaches. RDS residential camps are accessible by tryout only, and focus on individual technique, advanced skills, and ball mastery. Tryouts ensure a highly competitive environment for the whole week, and ensure that all players are immersed in one of the most intensive soccer environments available. Goalkeeper specific curriculums are also available on the RDS camps. |
Youth Programs Camps | 9 - 16 years | Designed for travel and select level players, the curriculum covers both advanced technical and tactical skills. The goal of the curriculum is to put players in a learning environment where they are challenged technically, tactically, physically, and mentally. Player camps are open registration, and are not subject to tryout. |
Extended Day Camps | 9 - 16 years | This program follows the same curriculum as Youth Programs residential camps, but is for players who prefer to travel into the site each day and return home at night (2.30 p.m. to 8.30 p.m on Sunday, 8.30 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. Mon.-Wed., and 8.30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Thursday). The extended day camp option is not available for RDS residential camps. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, Extended Day Camps will not be running in 2021, and will return in 2022! |
Team Camps | 9 - 16 years | Designed for teams that want to undertake a week of pre-season training. Based on prior consultation with the team coach a tailored curriculum is designed so that the team receives a customized training plan specific to the teams needs. The team camp experience also helps foster a great bonding and culture experience. (Players must register as a full team). |
