ST. PETER, Minn. – The Gustavus women’s soccer team is excited to be hosting two different residential camps this summer. Head Coach Laura Burnett-Kurie and the Gusties will host a Co-Ed Youth Soccer Camp, ages 8-17 (June 25-28), and a high-level High School Girls Camp, grades 9-12 (July 9-12).
CO-ED YOUTH CAMP, June 25-28: The Gustie Soccer Co-Ed Youth Camp is a positive resource for soccer players of Minnesota. All campers will receive quality instruction, experience a positive learning environment and have fun during the week. Each session focuses on individual skill training, in the context of team play, progressing from drills to small-sided games. We encourage players from various backgrounds and abilities to attend as we always strive to keep camp numbers smaller to allow for individual attention and coaching from our qualified staff.
HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS CAMP, July 9-12: The High School Girls Soccer Camp challenges high school players to take their skills to the next level through advanced player development and exposure to NCAA collegiate coaching. We focus on the individual player, in the context of team play, emphasizing possession, speed of play, technical development and improvement of tactical understanding. Through quality position based coaching, college level sessions and evening matches utilizing different formations participants will be prepared to succeed at the next level, whether that be C1 or Premier club, high school varsity or college. We also have daily presentations focused on maximizing exposure in the recruiting process, optimal performance in strength and conditioning and injury prevention.
NEW THIS YEAR: Campers will not only be exposed to different topics and advanced levels of coaching, but they will also be exposed to different philosophies of training, such as the French and Dutch methodologies!
