WHAT CAMPS DO WE OFFER
The club has been offering its unique format of soccer camps since 2011. Camps usually average around 60-80 players and by all accounts the players thoroughly enjoy themselves. The camps are open to all players, you don’t have to play at Virginia United FC to get involved.
(APRIL) Ronaldo Skill Builder
The Ronaldo Skill Builder does exactly what it says on the tin! It’s stationed right at the beginning of the season to allow players to gain and practice the skills that makes the season even more enjoyable. We look to not only increase the players knowledge of skills, their ability to perform them but also their confidence to perform and express themselves on the field when it matters. Ronaldo camps focus on the same area but use different sessions and skills. Full day and half day camps are available.
Full day camps available to U7 - U14 players only
Half day camps available for U6 - U7 players only
(APRIL) Girls Only Camp
Girls Only Camp will look to challenge our young players to improve across the four core skills over two fun days of football. The camp will be delivered by our head of female football Anthony Costa. The girls will take part in challenging, fun sessions in the mornings and in the afternoons see if the learned skills can be transferred to small sided games. Players from inside and outside the club are welcome to come down and join in the fun!
The full day camp is open to all girls aged U8 to U14.
(JULY) SOCCER CAMP
The mid season Soccer Camp will focus on players developing on all of the 4 core skills. It might be 1v1 skills one day or striking the ball the next. Our coaches will be putting players through fun practices as well as team challenges and small sided tournaments. Players of all abilities welcome from inside and outside the club U6 - U14.
Full day camps available to U7 - U14 players only
Half day camps available for U6 - U7 players only
(JULY) GIRLS ONLY CAMP
The theme for this camp is “Matildas at the World Cup!”. We will focus on the core attributes that the Matildas will use in their quest to win the FIFA Women’s World Cup. The camp will provide the girls with a fun and safe learning environment where they can learn and practice new skills.
We are also extremely excited to announce that on the 12th we will have two special guests attending:
Rae Dower - Holds AFC / FFA Pro Diploma, former Westfield Matilda, former Coach of the 2016-17 Westfield W-League Winning Canberra United Women’s team, former head coach of the National Training Centre United/ACTAS, and current Head Coach of the Australian U/17 Girls; national Team.
Kerry Hammersley - Football Queensland’s Women’s & Girls Development Officer.”
U6 - U16 Players Welcome
(SEPTEMBER) Street Football Camp
The end of season Street Football camp allows players the chance to get the ball down and play. Players will take part in sessions aimed at replicating the street football feel, it might be headers and volleys, 2 v 2 or a cross bar challenge. In the afternoons the players will take part in a street football tournament, smaller team numbers and more touches on the ball!
Full day camps available to U7 - U14 players only
Half day camps available for U6 - U7 players only
(SEPTEMBER) Female Football Camp
Our girls only soccer camp allows our girls to get together for two fun full days of football. Players will learn new skills, take part in challenges through the morning sessions and then test their skills in small sided games in the afternoon.
(DECEMBER) Neymar Freestyle Camp
LEAVE YOUR FOOTBALL MAD PLAYERS WITH US WHILE YOU FINISH OFF YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING!
Freestyle is all about expressing yourself on the field. More tricks, more confidence to use them, more time with the ball at your feet. Neymar is the king of tricks and at this camp we will look at some of the skills he uses most and see if we can become kings ourselves! Because of the heat this camp is a three half day camp. It makes it ideal for players that have never tried a VUFC camp before, or those players that just can’t wait for the next season to arrive. The camp is suitable for all players classified as U6 - U13 in 2019.
