Hello Soccer community,
We are happy to share that our inaugural Spring Lucania Football Club Youth Academy Camp, sponsored by the Lucania Football Club, will be taking place from June 19 to June 29. The goal of this camp is to lower the expectation barrier of entry for kids interested in taking steps to the next level of youth/developmental soccer. Doing so will help families have a better understanding about whether they want to pursue a program geared towards commitment and development over simple recreation in the future. Full details on the camp can be found below. If you have a child who would like to participate, or if you have any questions feel free to reach out to lucaniafootball@gmail.com
Who is this camp for?
The camp is targeted towards players with aspirations of taking their game to the next level. LFC will provide equipment for this event. Players/families are responsible for bringing shin guards, water bottle and to wear a white shirt for training. [First sessions are for U7 and U8 boys]
When and where is the camp happening?
The camp will run out of Clara Hughes Recreation Park, 281 Henderson Highway, on Fridays and Sundays, with the field and parking located in the back. Our Tuesdays and Thursdays will be at Sherwood Park, 715 Robin Hood Crescent. Dates are June 19, 20, 22, 24, 26, 27 and 29. Start time will be 7 pm and lasting until 8:15 pm.
What is the format of the camp?
All players will work their way through a 4-station circuit spending 15 minutes at each station. The entire circuit will take approximately 60 minutes. Each station will be run by certified coaches from the soccer community. We will have
experienced coaches at each station to help demonstrate proper technique for the drill(s).
