3rd ANNUAL ELITE CAMP A HUGE SUCCESS!!

The third Elite Camp in Savannah, July 9th -13th,2007 turned out to be another great week of high level soccer training for all the players that were in attendence. With the top quality coaching staff and the growing reputation of being one of the best soccer camps in the South East, players from many areas were in attendance this year.Again there were over 125 high level players that attended the week long camp. The camp coaching staff was of the highest level possible again and included six ’A’ licence coaches.  Darren Bloodworth,  UEFA ’A’ license coach who was working for Chelsea F.C. and now more recently of Norwich City was the only absentee because he had been called up to work with the Norwich City first team. Camp Director Gary Wright said " The camp turned out to be another great week, the players had a great time and the coaches were tremendous again. Having Darren called up to work with the first team squad at Norwich City just goes to show the level of real coaching this camp has to offer!" 

The camp also included a couple educational sessions with the sports trainers of St Joseph Candler designed around Speed and agility,stretching and nutrition for soccer. Camp Director Gary Wright said "Each group had tremendous talent and ability,and worked considerably hard throughout the week,especially when you consider the heat"."Again when players and coaches are sad that the week is over,you have to feel things went OK. A few parents commented that this was the best coached and organized camp they had ever seen, those things make all the hard work worthwhile".  The camp will run for the fourth succesive year the week of July 7th through 11th, 2008.

 We will be holding recreation camps throughout the summer to cover all ages.  These camps are designed around improving the soccer skills for our recreational players. 

Message From The Director:

"The goal for our camps is for all ages and levels of players to come and enjoy themselves, while working hard on their soccer skills.   If our participants take something away from the camp, whether it be a new-found confidence or a new skill to beat an opponent, then the camp has been a success!

This is why the Professional Coaching Staff is chosen carefully as to enable different coaching methods and skills to be taught along with different personalities, for the development and enjoyment of the player."

We know our players and coaches:

A coach or Parent can approach our staff on any specific needs regarding player development, and because we know the player well, we can often get the best from the player (players like to feel comfortable in a fun learning environment)

Skills, character and development can be monitored with an on-going process long after the camp program has finished and throughout the seasons ahead.  In addition to our summer camp program, CGSA now provides on-going individual and group clinics throughout the year.  For more details about these clinics, contact Gary Wright at 691-2472.
