Collegiate-Level Instruction

During the camp, you will receive collegiate-level instruction from the CSA coaching staff and coaches in attendance. This is a great opportunity for the prospective student-athlete to be evaluated by the staff at an individual and team level.

Scrimmages for recruiting purposes

College Coaches will want to observe the player in a small-sided game for recruiting purposes. College coaches will also provide positional and tactical advice as well as individual decision-making guidance.

FINAL 3RD/SHOOTING/GOALKEEPER STATION

The final 3rd/shooting station will focus on technique and player movement to enhance goal-scoring opportunities. Goalkeepers will also work at this station, and receive position-specific advice from college GK coach(es).

Recruiting Presentation

Both players and parents receive a presentation on NCAA recruiting rules about the recruiting process as well as how to communicate & market themselves to schools of interest. We also discuss what college coaches are looking for and the fundamentals of the admissions process (e.g. SAT/ACT etc.).

What Camper Families Say

More reviews available on each camp's page.

  • “The D1 College Soccer Camp is a great opportunity to be seen by several college coaches and an excellent way to prepare for the recruiting process. I had a very positive experience and would recommend this camp to any girl serious about playing soccer in college.”

  • “My daughter, Gabby Vinco (goalkeeper), just attended your camp at CSUEB last Friday and I’d like to thank you all for what a great camp you ran! She had a great time, got some wonderfully constructive advice, and left feeling great! I will be glad to recommend this camp to all of our soccer friends and have already told several families on her club team. I was particularly impressed with the coach that talked to the girls about the recruiting process, but I didn’t catch his name.”

  • “Thank you so much for putting on this camp. I really enjoyed it and feel like I learned a lot from it. I thought it was planned out great and all the coaches were wonderful. I felt like the coaches really wanted to be there and teach us, which is why I got so much out of the two days. I look forward to attending this camp again.”

  • “We were extremely impressed with this ID camp; thank you! Communication via email is essential and you all nailed it, the organization and structure of the four hours was timed perfectly and finally the classroom instruction was raw, authentic, and not sugar coated!!! We truly enjoyed the experience and we commend you for a job well done."

  • “College Soccer Academy (Bay Area), was very well organized and executed. The girls were kept busy with drills, scrimmages, or classroom learning the entire time. I was also impressed with the high level of athletes that attended the camp. The coaches also took time to talk to the parents and answered any questions that were asked. It was a very worthwhile experience.”

  • “I just wanted to say thanks on behalf of myself and my daughter Andrea for putting on a great camp. Andrea really enjoyed it and learned a lot. The camp was run with precision and energy and packed with terrific instruction. I was amazed at the coaches efforts to provide a fun but competitive atmosphere, keep everyone engaged, and identify the girls by name. Please let me know when you may be having other camps in the Northern California area, thanks again, Jim.”

  • “My daughter, Bree, had a great time at your camp. All the sessions seemed to give the coaches a good look at each of the girls. The coaches were all terrific and seemed to make the girls comfortable. The scrimmage was crucial because it gave the coaches a chance to see the girls in a game situation. Both Bree and Hannah also said the girls in their groups were very nice and they got to know each other's names and where they lived.”
