The Day Camp offers emphasis on technical development in a fun and enjoyable environment.

Small sided games, with low numbers in appropriate space, will be included to promote more touches on the ball. We currently do not offer a goalkeeper option for our Day Camp Session.

A Super Skills portion of camp offers an emphasis on basic and enhanced technical development. The training sessions will cover topics such as dribbling, passing and receiving, finishing, attacking and defending, and possession. All technical sessions will progress under the pressure of time and space and / or an opponent.
The ID section of camp offers a focus on advanced technical development. An appropriate emphasis will be placed on individual, group (positional), and team tactical development based on skill level and age. Technical topics such as dribbling, passing and receiving, heading and finishing will be addressed. Tactical field sessions will be focused on positional play, awareness and reading the game, off the ball movement and combination play in the middle and attacking third of the field.
Our Residential (ID) Camp also will offer a goalkeeping component. The focus of the Santa Clara Goalkeeper Camp is to improve the technical, tactical and physical aspects of the goalkeeper position. Aspects of technical goalkeeping included: catching and handling, reaction, diving, high balls, angle play, footwork and distribution. There will be goalkeeper training in the morning and afternoon sessions. Goalkeepers will then be integrated into full sided matches in the evening. Coaching staff will be present to provide technical and tactical feedback.
