APEX ELITE SUMMER CAMP
Check out what our coaches have to say about our 2021 Summer Camp
DETAILS
The Prescient Soccer Elite Camp is a 9-week series of high level fútbol training that runs from May 31, 2021 - July 30, 2021 in Apex, NC. The camp aims to improve each player's technical, tactical, physical, and emotional ability leading up to the start of the club season in August time.
Our goal is to provide unparalleled training by placing players in a professional setting (with professional expectations) and providing them with intense and detailed instruction. Our program is not for everyone—we are very selective on who is admitted into our summer camp and who is retained in the program.
We believe intensity, focus, and discipline are the main driving forces in player development
At the same time we create a environment where the players are encouraged to let their personalities come out and enjoy their time on/off the field
Your child will be challenged but will learn how to cope with the pressure (and challenges) that are required to be a top player
Training dates in Apex are offered in both the AM and PM each day of the week. Please refer to the schedule below to identify age-specific training dates.*We will have an optional session on Monday, May 31 due to the federal Holiday. Those with sessions planned can either train that day OR:2008/2009 B/G will have a makeup session Tuesday, June 1
2010/2011 B/G will have a makeup session Thursday, June 3*
Weather Policy:We will plan to train in rain unless there is inclement weather that proves dangerous or makes the fields unplayable
If the Jaycee Soccer Park fields are unplayable due to rain or other weather conditions we will train at Seymour Athletic Park fields in Apex, NC
We will use our "RainOut" Line to communicate cancellations and weather status as updates happen - more information to be provided as we get closer to the start date
STRUCTURE
Here is the weekly structure for the 5:00pm - 8:00pm sessions:
Day 1 (Technical/Tactical): The session will introduce a technical/tactical focus and put players through a series of different unopposed and opposed scenarios that encourage the technical/tactical coaching points to find success. Focused on improving each player's abilities on the ball including but not limited to ball mastery, dribbling, passing accuracy, shooting/striking, etc.
Day 2 (Technical/Tactical): The session will introduce a technical/tactical focus and put players through a series of different unopposed and opposed scenarios that encourage the technical/tactical coaching points to find success.

DO I HAVE TO COMMIT FOR THE WHOLE CAMP?
NO. We understand you and your family may have travel plans or other commitments during the summer. To accommodate this, you can sign-up for sessions only for when you are in-town and available. We do require that you register for sessions on a weekly basis (please register for all the dates you plan to attend that week at once) as this helps us plan the sessions accordingly. You must register for the sessions that you desire by Sunday at 8:00pm, the week before sessions begin Here is an example:
- For the first week of training Tommy's parents sign him up for 4 days of training however, the following week, Tommy's family has planned a vacation and therefore they can only attend 1 day that week. They may sign-up for the Thursday play-date that week. The week after, Tommy's family returns from vacation and they decide to sign-up for 4 days that week.
*We do HIGHLY encourage consistency and frequency because without it, the player will not be able to maximize the training benefits. This is especially important because each week builds off the preceding week so there is steady progression throughout the program duration.*
