Young athletes who aspire to match the impressive ball control and shooting accuracy of greats like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo can set their sights high with a camp dedicated to perfecting their soccer skills. The Arizona Youth Summer Soccer Camp, presented by Small Goal Soccer and Arizona Sports League, features personalized hands-on instruction from coaches who have played and coached at the professional, college and club levels. The weeklong sleepover camp, which runs from Monday, June 2, through Friday, June 6, shuttles players from the East Valley to Camp Tontozona in Payson — one of the best training facilities in Arizona.
The Classic Soccer Camp, which appeals to players of all levels who want exceptional soccer training along with a classic summer camp experience, includes 10-plus hours of soccer training as well as leisure recreational sports, hikes and activities.
Experienced club soccer players and those aspiring to play in MLS Next, ECNL or Girls Academy League will benefit from the Elite Training Group. This camp features 16-plus hours of intense training, along with classroom time dedicated to techniques, tactics and mental aspects of the sport. The Elite group offers smaller intimate groups with more intense curriculum to maximize training.
In addition, a dedicated goalkeeping camp is available for goalkeepers at all levels of play.
The camp offers top-class soccer training along with an amazing week of waterfall hikes, campfires, games and more. In addition to 24-hour supervision and meals, camp registration fees include transportation to and from camp, four nights of dorm accommodations at ASU’s Tonto Creek Camp and a camp T-shirt.
The Arizona Youth Summer Soccer Camp is open to kids born 2008 to 2017. Both Classic (recreational) and Elite options are available, along with an Elite Goalkeeping Camp option.
In addition to a highly accomplished coaching staff with experience at the professional, college and club levels, each year the camp brings VIP special guests to interact with campers. Former professional athletes, Olympians and World Cup players deliver inspirational messages, answer questions and give tips throughout the day.
