 FOREST SOCCER CAMP

2012 Cavalier Day Camp at Forest

Cavaliers Day Camp:  Monday, July 30 - Friday, August 3, 2012  6:00-8:00 pm       $75.00                                            
Now held at Thomas Jefferson Elementary School on Route 811 in Forest, Virginia from Monday through Friday. The camp is open to boys and girls entering Kindergarten through eighth grades, regardless of previous experience or ability.  The camp will be held in the evening to take advantage of cooler temperatures and easier transportation for parents.

The Cavalier Day Camp is designed to help young players develop a love of the game while learning the basic technical skills of soccer in a community setting. We employ the MicroSoccer system, using age-appropriate field size and smaller goals, with fewer players on each team to ensure that players get thousands of touches on the ball throughout the week. Our efforts will focus on trapping, passing, dribbling, and shooting. There will also be a session to teach the fundamentals of goalkeeping. The primary goal, however, is to provide a fun atmosphere where kids of all abilities can shine. The day camp is staffed with local high school and college coaches and players. The Cavalier Day Camp starts at 6:00 PM and ends at 8:00 PM each day, Monday through Friday.  Players should bring their own soccer ball, clearly marked with the player's name in permanent ink for use during camp. Players may purchase a discounted camp ball on the first day of the camp or at Blue Ridge Soccer & Sports.  Water and a snack will be provided each day.
