Advanced Camp $145 (by tryout only)

(Ages 12-18) Training in agility, dribbling, defending, passing, receiving, finishing, and tactical decision making. This Camp caters to experienced players seeking intensive camp experience! Players wishing to attend Advanced Camp must register for Skills Camp. On the first day of camp, the 3D staff will select those players deemed eligible for Advanced Camp. Selection for Advanced Camp will be based on the player’s ball skills, tactical knowledge, and the learning maturity of each player. Those individuals selected for Advanced Camp will spend part of each day away from their age group working with the Camp Director on advanced techniques and tactics. You do not need to notify us of your desire to attend Advanced Camp; players who belong in Advanced Camp should, generally speaking, stand out from the crowd in the course of play. Players selected for Advanced Camp will stay with their age group for the first portion of each day and then will combine with the advanced players from other groups for the remainder of each day.

Prizes!

At 3D Soccer we believe in the power and effectiveness of positive reinforcement. We developed the "Most Coachable Player" award to recognize players who express the qualities associated with eagerness to learn and improve. This award was also created to provide an example for all participants and to set the tone for a focus on learning. Each day, this award is given to one player from each group along with a prize!

Awards Ceremony

At the end of each camp we also have an Awards Ceremony where players are recognized for excellence in other areas. Awards vary based on the qualities and abilities of the players present each week but often include "Most Valuable Defense", "Most Valuable Offense", "MVP" and of course "Most Coachable Player". Several players from each group are recognized and the week's "Most Coachable Player" from each group gets a prize along with their certificate!
