What’s Still So Different About Our Camps?
1
We Are Selective:
We intentionally limit participation in each session of the Frostburg Soccer Camps program.  We have designed a unique program that provides customized and innovative soccer and teambuilding activities on the best fields on our campus.  We are not just a for-profit soccer business that is after the bottom-line, but a soccer program interested in sharing knowledge and our passion for the game.
2
We Guarantee a College-Level Coach will train Your Team for Every Session:
Our staff is comprised ONLY of coaches with U.S. college experience! We do not have paid "trainers" or current players responsible for providing instruction. Players and teams will be instructed and evaluated in all training sessions and games by coaches with college coaching experience who clearly understand and will convey the demands of the collegiate game.
3
We Provide Unique Teambuilding and/or College Prep Activities:
Every day at our camp, a unique seminar or activity is conducted with your team to build team unity.  We also conduct a college seminar with the goal of having every camper develop a clearer understanding of the college selection process and the role sports can play in their college decision.  Our professional staff also conducts unique teambuilding activities for each team throughout the camp.
4
We Customize our Curriculum for Your Team's Needs:
Our first priority is to improve your team’s play and prepare them for the upcoming season.  We don’t teach you soccer “our way” but rather build training sessions and objectives to meet the immediate needs of your team.  Our staff will work with each team's coaches and use their own daily evaluations to target the most urgent training needs for the team and players.  We also utilize certified officials to referee every full-sided game while at the camp.
5
We Use Only our Best Fields & All Rooms are Air-Conditioned and have Microwave/Refrigerator Units:
All of the grass fields we use on the FSU campus are irrigated which makes them plush and green all summer!  We also access our Sprinturf Stadium field for evening games as well. We use ONLY air-conditioned rooms with microwave/refrigerator units for ALL campers and our dining services are outstanding.
 


High School Team Program and Specifics:
Our Cost:
$395 per camper - for 4 days and 3 nights from Sunday afternoon to Wednesday afternoon.  The fee includes accommodations, meals, a camp shirt, and all materials associated with our teambuilding and college-prep workshops.   There is a 15-player minimum for the team camp although teams may be combined if space allows.  A $100 initial payment is required upon registration with the balance due prior to the start of camp. 
Registration:
The Easiest Registration Process You’ll Ever Experience!
After your team has been accepted, we'll set up a meeting for your players and parents at or near your school and we’ll do the rest.  You don’t have to make  extra phone calls, collect checks, or arrange rooms.  We’ll work directly with your players and families to do paper or on-line registration.  Coaches are invited to watch every session and work with our staff to target your team’s training needs throughout the week.
Our Location and Facilities:
Frostburg State University is located in Frostburg, MD midway between Pittsburgh and the Baltimore/Washington area in the Allegany Mountains of Western Maryland. It is conveniently located just off I-68 a little more than 2 hours from either metro area. Because of its location, the climate at FSU is ideal for summer soccer training and our soccer fields are all irrigated and kept in beautiful condition all summer. The residence halls are air-conditioned, have modern furniture, microwave/refrigerator units, cable TV, internet access, and are just steps from the Dining Hall. Teams will be housed in double rooms but in the same "quads" or 4-room halls that share a large bathroom. The Aramark-catered Dining Hall has a variety of hot entrees, a salad and soup bar, a cold-cut station, and fruit and sport drinks at every meal.
