Camp Details:

We have designed the PhoenixGK Keeper Camp to cater specifically to the highest level of youth keepers. With a 6:1 maximum camper to coach ratio we will assure that you get the maximum number of reps and personalized coaching. Each day will have a specific focus and a short competition at the end of the session. Between Noon - 1 pm each day we will have a speaker to discuss a goalkeeping specific topic. Parents are invited to the speaker session and it will be recorded. 

After the camp you will get a personal evaluation of your performance and areas of improvement as well as videos of your drills.

Expect the camp to be a fun but intense and challenging experience.

We are requiring a coaches recommendation to ensure consistent quality of the keepers for the camp. We want to make sure that this is the absolute best possible value for every player attending.
