-
My son had the opportunity to play at a higher level with very skilled players and knowledgeable coaches
-
This is year 3 and we will of course be back. Blacksburg is exceptional, the coaches were relatable and fun for my age 14 boys. This year was Ben’s first guidance to contact coaches with video, to show an early and repeated interest.

What they liked best was skills learned and meeting coaches.
-
The competition and coaching were amazing.

They especially enjoyed collaborating with other players and coaches.

Improving skills, playing with kids from all over
-
Coaches supporting athletes in learning the positions they want to play
-
My son received a grade 1 concussion and the medical staff and athletic trainer were amazing!
-
This was the first time my son has been on his own and it was 4 hours away from home. As a parent, I was worried how it would go. After seeing the campus and the security at the dorms and listening to the instructors I felt more at ease. Then speaking with my child nightly and knowing he was tired, ate 3 meals a day, and was showering, I knew he was in good hands and doing just fine. He said he had the best time of his life and the experience was amazing! He will be attending next year! Thank you all for providing a great life experience and memories for my son!
-
I cannot thank you enough for providing such a fantastic camp for my son! As a mom, you cannot put a price on safety and I THANK YOU for providing such a great environment! I loved the great organization and the ease of getting Will checked in and out. The experience was life-changing and I truly appreciate it! Also, I (and my son too) LOVED the Player Evaluation Card! It provided great and honest insight. It gave us a plan, so to speak, on where Will needs to work on certain skills. Thank you again for such a great camp! We will be back next year!!
-
I have attended the camp for two consecutive years. Each year, I learn more and build on the skills I improved on from the previous year. Feedback is instant and constructive. Good pace and structure.
-
This is a great camp! My son has been to this camp five times and plans to come back next summer. Excellent positive coaching. Highly skilled players. Lots of fun. Food at Virginia Tech is excellent.
-
My son went with two friends, and they all really enjoyed everything about this camp. Also, they've done other camps in the past, and very much appreciated having air conditioned dorms, and excellent dining, in addition to the soccer experience itself.
-
My son CJ had a wonderful experience at VA Tech camp. The coaches were very engaging, and helped him improve his game. We definitely recommend this camp!
-
The Nike camp at VT is an excellent program. My son had fun, worked hard, learned some new techniques, and made several new friends. On the way home he asked if he could return next year! Thanks VT & Nike, for a great experience!
-
The camp was very organized, the boys were pushed and the campus experience is a bonus for boys who are looking at colleges and play soccer.
-
Best soccer camp by far my son has ever attended. For the first time with any soccer camp, he talked about going back next year even as we were going home.
-
The camp showed my son what he needed to improve on to get a college to look at him, while also improving his soccer skills and showing him what it is like to live away from home. It made him start looking a schools to see what it takes to get a soccer scholarship. Before this camp we had to ask him to practice now he practice without us saying anything.
-
Excellent experience. This was my son's second year attending the camp! He loved every minute. He has already said he'll do it again next summer. Thank you, Nike and the experienced coaching staff.
-
My son has attended a lot of soccer camps but the Virginia Tech camp by far had the biggest return oninvestment. The experience and skills that my son gained at the camp completely outshined those of other camps. He will definitely be attending again.
-
This was our first year at the VT camp. My son and his teammate came to the camp. They learned new tactical and technical moves they will take back to their team. They enjoyed the college life and the said the food was amazing! We enjoyed being able to watch their evening games. They will definitely return next year.
-
I would attend this camp again because the level of training is excellent and the level of the coaching is beyond anything else I have experienced. Thanks you for the great week.
-
This camp was so much fun! It was a great experience to have with my friends since a couple of my teammates attended the camp with me. I also made some new friends that I hope to see again next year. My coach was a super soccer player and he did a great job helping me to be better too. I can't wait to go back next year.
-
My son, a rising senior, had an outstanding experience at the Nike Soccer Camp at Virginia Tech. The training, coaching enthusiasm, and level of competition were excellent. He is striving to have his best year yet, and feels the camp was an excellent addition to his summer program.
-
Fantastic camp for kids! Excellent coaches and a great opportunity to improve and expand upon current soccer skills. Highly recommend this Nike camp. Our son has attended the last 2 years and has learned a great deal.
-
Best camp I've ever attended. I've even experienced ODP and UVA camp. VT camp was absolutely the best coaching I've seen. Wow!

We have seen a big improvement in our son's skills since attending camp. He had a great time and before the parents left they made it very clear that the staff was there for the children day or night and made sure the littler ones understood they could come and get them anytime for any reason- which made me and my son feel comfortable.

Overall experience--this is one of the few camps that allows an overnight college experience with high quality soccer
-
Lukas loves the freedom they are given at camp. He enjoys being responsible for his schedule. The food is always a hit. The coaches have been fantastic and Lukas always talks about how much fun he has with his team/coach.
-
According to son, the food. But for us the experience of being away and learning from great coaching staff.
-
11v11, 4v4, and the 8v8 tournamnet were all very fun, and the training sessions were also very good. All time at the fields.

The staff/coaches make this so fun for the boys! Experiencing a little taste of freedom on a college campus is an added bonus!

My son was challenged and felt encouraged by the coaches to work hard to improve. The campus was also a great experience for him.

The quality of the playing fields and coaching were outstanding. Virginia Tech's campus is perfectly suited for the camp experience.

Making new friends while playing soccer and the excellent food.

The facilities at Virginia Tech are as good as it gets. They get great players to come to the camp which makes it very enjoyable camp.

Nike soccer camp was a great experience. The coaches and staff are very knowledgeable and helpful in perfecting my game. I would recommend this camp to anyone!!
-
Great tactical and technical training. Met lots of great coaches made new friends.
-
I would like to see the camp take place for a longer period of time! 2.5-3 days is just not long enough when traveling from Cincinnati, OH. My son really enjoyed the experience and even though he is only going into 8th grade I think he gained an appreciation for what a great school Virginia Tech is but a cumulative 22 hours of driving in 4 days is too much. Thanks for the great experience!
-
This camp was a great experience. The food was fantastic and the air conditioned dorm was a plus. My son went with a group from his team and had a blast. We would definitely recommend this camp to other soccer players.

I felt quite safe leaving my child at Virginia Tech. The coach made a wonderful appeal as to the expectations of the campers during their stay at Virginia Tech. All of the staff were very helpful and engaged us as we registered.

My son learned about communicating with teammates and the importance of spacing. He loved the whole experience from the dining hall, to the workouts, to the awesome facilities!
