Staff
The staff at the Soccer Academy of St. Stephen's consists of full-time, professional, soccer people. Campers train with Nationally And Internationally Licensed Coaches with a proven coaching methodology endorsed by US-SOCCER and US Youth Soccer. Our commitment in everything we do is to the development of the individual child. Our camp is no different. Our belief is children participate in sports to fulfill certain basic needs: movement, self-esteem, and participation. Simply put: Kids play because it is fun. Our staff, trained in coaching and facilitating players under the age of 14, creates a dynamic environment that allows each individual child to fill these needs and increase their soccer abilities. This is accomplished by designing developmentally appropriate environments based on children’s social, cognitive, and physical abilities. In short, children participate in games and activities that utilize appropriate soccer and cognitive skills and allow them to learn, develop, and most importantly, have fun. Again, our goal is to help insure their long-term participation in the game of soccer by making the game fun.
