Dear Parents,
For the past 37 years I have run my own camps and clinics in Massachusetts. I have been instrumental in starting Youth Soccer Programs in numerous towns as well as teaching thousands of coaches and parents to enjoy working with young soccer players of all ability levels. Most of the coaches running camps and administrators running the state associations and leagues in New England were introduced to soccer through my camps or worked at my school in order to improve their knowledge and understanding of the game.
I am completely committed to the great sport of soccer and more specifically to your child's development in the world game. Whether you attend a day camp or overnight camp I am confident that this experience cannot be matched by any other camp in the world for quality of instructors, program or price.
Please review the details below, and if you have any other questions,
please give me a call.
Best Regards,

Medical Information
Our Health Care Supervisor will be on campus at ALL times. This HCS is under the supervision of the camp's Health Care Consultant, per order of the Massachusetts Board of Health.
The awards ceremony will be at 11:00am, Friday morning. Friday morning pick-up is directly after awards at approximately 11:15 am. Parents are encouraged to attend the awards ceremony at 11:00 am.
Occasionally during overnight and day camps, inclement weather forces the camp indoors. We use this time to show instructional soccer videos. We also show films each night during Movie Hour for the overnight campers. We utilize the latest coaching video tapes from England, Holland, and Germany using Professional players and coaches.
Top quality apparel and equipment will be available at the store, including Nike, Adidas, and Brine. Parents can place their credit card number on file with camp staff for charges at the camp store. Charges on Master Card and VISA are accepted. There is also a discount on all merchandise for all members.
A medical form, filled out by your physician, must be presented BEFORE the first day of camp. This form must show proof of examination within the past 24 months, up to date immunizations, and the physician's signature.
Here is our Overnight Camp Health Form, Board of Health Letter to Parents, and Overnight Camp Welcome Letter.
What to Bring to Overnight Camp:
Awards Presentation and Pick-Up: (Dana Hall and Merrimack Only)
Special awards will be presented for achievements and campers will receive a certificate for having completed the week's training, along with a skills assessment made by their coach. This assessment is greatly useful in providing information on which aspects of the game individual campers should continue to work on after their week of camp.
