Co-Camp Directors Champions Premier
Champions Premier invests in an individualistic approach rather than a team-oriented approach as a normal club team would do so. This creates a competitive environment that is psychologically beneficial for your child competing with themselves to get better. In addition, getting direct coaching advice for their needs rather than general team concepts. Champions Premier is a club-agnostic training program that recruits top players around the area to an environment of European training/coaching methodologies. Furthermore, the program is connecting real-time pros with young players giving players the opportunity to see what it takes to be a professional, on and off the field.
