Summer Camps in Town 2024

Travel Pre-Season Camp: Aug 26th-29th

We will hold an optional pre-season camp for all Travel players the week prior to the Fall season start. This camp provides players an opportunity to get touches on the soccer ball, sharpen their skills and work tactically with the coaches prior to the Fall season start.

For this camp we will mix certain age groups together where relevent (7v7, 9v9, 11v11) to provide a better camp environment and pre-season feeling with the ability to scrimmage and coach within the game, while still having all of our team coaches involved with the group. This means we will have multiple coaches working with groups and benefits our players to learn from the experience and expertise of a variety of coaches, alongside their team coach for the season.

Links for this camp will open once tryout offers are sent out to players

Kristine Lilly Soccer Camp: Dates TBA for Wilton CT event

Kristine Lilly has won 2 World Cups and 3 Olympic Medals during her time on the US Women’s National Team and is still the most capped player while also being inducted into the US Olympic and US Soccer Hall’s of Fame. As a native of Wilton CT, she comes back each summer to run a soccer camp in her home town which is open to all players and sells out each year.

The camp is for players U9-U13 and is a great opportunity considering how close it is to John Jay to learn directly from Kristine and her experience which took her to the highest levels of the game. We would recommend this camp to any of our players, but especially girls as Kristine is a great role model for their aspirations in soccer.
