WKU Soccer Camp Registration

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. - The WKU women's soccer program has announced its 2019 summer camp dates and times and is set to host four camps this summer, including an Elite Individual and Goalkeeper Camp (July 8-10), Girls' Competition Camp (July 10), Girls' Team Camp (July 10-14) and a Half-Day Camp (July 16-19).

The current listed prices below for camps reflect the early-bird discount special, which will apply until May 31. The Hilltopper Soccer Academy offers cancellation protection for a $30 fee, which acts as an insurance to cover a camper in the event of injury, illness, change of plans or other unforeseen circumstances prior to the start of camp.

Special discounts are also available for the Elite Individual and Team Camps. Siblings will feature a $40 discount per camper, and campers who compete in both camps will earn a $100 discount.

The Elite Individual and Goalkeeper Camp is for players in grades 7-12. Costs for commuters will be $295 while overnight players will pay $325. The camp focuses on advanced training and small-sided games to improve the technical aspects of play. Goalkeepers will experience advanced individual training to improve footwork, angles, shot-stopping ability, diving, distribution and defensive organization.

The Girls' Competition Camp is also for players in grades 7-12. The Competition Camp is for commuters only and will cost $120 per player. The camp day consists of small-sided 7-on-7 tournaments in a fast-paced championship format. Teams will play a minimum of four games in a competitive and exciting environment. Teams must have a minimum of nine players, who each must register for the tournament individually through our online system. All participants registered for our Elite Camp or Team Camp are automatically registered for this great event as a free add-on to their camp experience.

The Girls' Team Camp is meant to prepare high school and club teams and individuals players for the upcoming season through instructional sessions and a championship tournament. HSA staff coaches will work personally with each coach to implement tactics that highlight team strengths. Players will improve field awareness through a series of instructional sessions designed to develop skills, as well as a better understanding of the game. Goalkeepers will receive individual instruction from our qualified goalkeeper staff. Each team will compete in a championship tournament, and independent campers will join an appropriate team based on age and ability. Additional activities may include team-building, leadership lectures, strength and conditioning, injury prevention, soccer nutrition, college recruiting discussions or panels about college life. HSA will provide room and board, free of charge, for a coach or manager from each team. Prices for commuters will be $345, and overnight campers will pay $425 for the event.

The Half-Day Camp is for boys and girls ages 5-12 and goes on from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The campers will be grouped by age and skill level and will participate in daily activities in a fun and challenging environment with emphasis on individual soccer technique, team-building and sportsmanship values.
