British Soccer Camp

 
With an innovative camp curriculum developed from the country that invented the sport, and with a team of coaches who grew up eating, drinking and breathing soccer, Challenger Sports are bringing young players throughout the US and Canada, an up close and personal opportunity to experience the sport closest to Britain’s heart. Continuing over 20 years of success as the most popular soccer camp in the United States and Canada, Challenger will be holding one of their highly regarded “British Soccer Camps” right here in the growing soccer community of Ruston, LA.
 
Challenger Sports have teamed up with Ruston Parks and Recreation to host the week long “British Soccer Camp” during the week of June 19 through 23, 2017, at the Regional Sports Complex, 1501 South Farmerville St.
 
The camp will run Monday through Friday and each child will be coached by a member of the elite team of 1,200 British soccer coaches, hand selected, trained and flown to the United States exclusively, to work on these programs. Challenger Sports will hold over 4,000 soccer programs this year and will coach over 225,000 players between the ages of 3 and 19. 
 
The mission of the camp is to provide all children with an opportunity to learn, grow and share a positive and educational camp experience, which not only develops success on the field, but also inspires confidence, happiness and builds self-esteem.
 
The key to any memorable childhood experience, is fun. The Challenger Camp culture is centered on making learning fun and their British coaching staff are famous for the way they are able to entertain, engage and educate the campers throughout the week.
 
Challenger’s unique 1,000 touches coaching syllabus provides an innovative daily regimen of foot skills, moves, juggling, tactical practices and daily tournament play which will enhance technical skill. But it’s not just about the game. Challenger Sports uses soccer to teach respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship.
