    He received solid coaching

    — Dan B. Parent

    • 5/5.
    Amazing experience

    July 14, 2019: Eli loved this camp from start to finish. He was excited to come but did not have good experiences with other camps prior to this one. He came home full of excitement from the last few days and talked about how much he learned in goal and on the field in just a few days. He was tired but ready to go back again. He’s even talking about going to the Darlington School next year so he can participate in the soccer program. He will definitely be back next year for the Nike camp.

    — Amanda M. Parent
