Camp Plan includes (but not limited to) the following points of emphasis:
*  If a camper or staff member is sick, not feeling well, or has a fever, the camper or staff member should stay home
*  If someone in a camper's or staff member's household has COVID-19 or has tested positive within the past 14 days, the camper/staff member should stay home
*  Regular washing of hands with soap and water  (or use of appropriate hand sanitizer)
*  Each camper should bring their own water bottle, with enough water to last the 2 hours of camp each day  (we will NOT have a communal water refill station due to current guidelines/restrictions;  if those guidelines change, then we would provide water refill stations)
*  Limited mixing of groups  -  each group will have a designated area/space to work for the duration of the camp week
*  As camp is daily from 9-11am, there will NOT be a lunch break or any indoor activity



General Information:  This summer's modified version of Day Camp is open to boys/girls, ages 5-15.  It will run from 9-11am daily.  
*  Our Day Camp is open to boys and girls, ages 7-15 and is designed around the following 4 main pillars:
     1.  FUN  
     2.  COMPETITION
     3.  DEVELOPMENT
     4.  CHARACTER
*  We offer top quality instruction, great facilities and a fun and engaging learning environment. 
*  Campers will be trained in a manner which develops their soccer brain as well as their comfort level with the ball.   Much emphasis will be placed on individual technical skills and fundamental team / small group concepts.    
*  Camp staff consists of college coaches, high school and club coaches, and current college players. 
*  We offer an athletic trainer on site throughout the week.
*  Guest speakers and guest appearances  (varies from year to year)
*  Campers will be grouped by age.  We will do our best to keep friends/teammates together.  Our goal is for each camper to be in the group that is best for their development, enjoyment and overall experience.  Groups will be organized by age and will remain in their designated areas for the duration of camp each day.   


Check-In:

Typical Daily Schedule:
Day Camp will operate on a 9-11am model. 
Campers would be dropped off, stay in their groups for the duration of camp (2 hours) that day and be picked up at the conclusion of camp that day (at 11am).  There will NOT be a lunch break or any indoor activities.  We will have camp in the rain.  In the event of lightning/storms, we would suspend camp and attempt to make up the missed time by adding additional time on other days (to the best of our ability).  

Day Camp will run on a modified schedule from 9:00 - 11:00am daily.  After the first day, campers will report, upon arrival (a few minutes before 9am), to their group at their designated area/space and check in with their group coach.  At the conclusion of camp each day (at 11am), campers will be dismissed from their designated area/space by their group coach.
