Challenger British Soccer Camp
The Greater Johnstown YMCA and Challenger Sports have teamed up to host the week long British Soccer camp during the week of July 26 – July 30, at a local Johnstown Field to be determined.
The camp will run Monday through Friday and each child will be coached by a member of challenger’s British coaching staff flown to the USA exclusively to work on these programs. Challengers’ British Soccer Camp is more than a week of drills and skills. In addition to taking part in a daily regimen of foot skill development, technical and tactical practices and daily tournament style plays, each child will also be treated to a rich cultural experience and lessons on respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship.
The most popular part of each camp is the Camp World Cup, which in this World Cup year – promises to be a great occasion. The coaches use this daily tournament to teach the players about life, customs and traditions of other countries. The campers are asked to make up cheers, bring flags, dress up and learn as much as they can about the country they represent.
British Soccer camp sessions are being offered for the following ages. Price will be determined upon completion of final details:
| Ages 3-4 | 9-10am | $ TBD |
| Ages 4-6 | 10-11:30am | $ TBD |
| Ages 6-9 | 9-12pm | $ TBD |
| Ages 10-14 | 1-4pm | $ TBD |
Each camper will receive a free camp t shirt, soccer ball, giant soccer poster and an individual skills performance evaluation. In addition, any child who signs up online at least 45 days prior to camp will receive a genuine British Soccer replica Jersey (value $39)
Space is limited – parents are encouraged to sign up on line in advance to avoid disappointment.
