Power Soccer Summer Camps — Schedule
Fundamentals Mini Camp (Ages 4-5)
Kids as young as 4-5 are introduced to soccer in a fun and rewarding way and coaches give plenty of positive reinforcement and recognition for the players. Learning soccer skills is great for young kids since it also teaches them agility and balance. This camp trains kids with a combination of skill learning and games. Plus, each player gets lots of ball contact through ball movement practice, dodge games and fun ball manoeuvring exercises.
Soccer Essentials (Ages 6-7)
The next step in the kids’ development is learning core soccer skills and developing good habits through age-appropriate skill exercises and games. Furthermore, they also start to compete and achieve success while still having fun through gameplay. The participants also practise their coordination and movement, plus skill exercises and small-sided soccer games that positively impact their development.
Skill Development Program (Ages 8-13)
This program maximizes the individual’s soccer potential while recognizing that the players come from different soccer backgrounds and vary in technique and ability. Further skills include ball control, passing for possession, support play, positional sense, movement with and without the ball, dribbling and shooting skills. Coaches evaluate the players consistently from the first session and challenge players by grouping them with players of similar abilities.
Senior Camp (Ages 14-15)
The Senior Camp participants receive challenging and advanced tactical training, including positional play, support, movement off the ball and transition play. They also work on concepts of space, support and movement off the ball. The Power Soccer program again uses creative and challenging games that improve ball control, passing, dribbling, defending and shooting.
