2012 Summer Residential and Day Camp Information and Registration details coming soon!!!

Welcome to the offical Camp site of the The University of Akron Men's Soccer program.

As the Head Coach at The University of Akron and the Akron Soccer Camp Director, I have heard from parents and coaches time and again, how the players who attended the Akron Soccer Camp have come back with their skills improved, understanding of the game increased and enthusiasm for the game renewed. I am sure you will agree that, being exposed to the 'Akron Environment' of intensive training, challenging competition, and some of the top college soccer players in the country will improve your play.

The Akron Soccer Camp will once again be offering Winter Camp programs for the 2012 winter months. In January we will be hosting our sixth year of the College Prep Camp, a weekend Junior Development Camp and January will also see the start of our annual Monday Night Soccer School. The month of March will see the annual Goalkeeping Camp take place on campus, the weekend of March 2 - 3 .

Each session is designed for different levels of play. We have a session that is right for the Elite player who is looking to play and be recruited in to the college ranks beyond with our Prep Camp weekend. For our younger Zips who are learning the basics of the game we offer the Pre-School program as a part of our Monday Night Soccer School and something for everyone in between. Please visit the specific camp page you are interested in, using the links on the left to find further details.

Alongside our developed winter camp offerings, we offer a year round curriculum that answers the needs of players at every stage in their development. Each of our camps are staffed by my own coaches here at Akron as well as experienced coaches who are eager to pass on their knowledge to you.

The University of Akron, is located in Akron, Ohio, in the Midwestern United States, within just a 30 minute drive from Cleveland, and easily accessible from Columbus, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Dayton, Indianapolis, Buffalo, Toronto, Detroit, New York City and Philadelphia. We would love to have you join us at the Akron Soccer Camps and see for yourself.
