Soccer Camps Preparation For Yourself And Your Kids

By Barbara Price


Kids who like playing soccer and a member of their school team wants to improve their performance when playing. This helps them be chosen by their coach to play regularly on matches and contribute more for their club to win. Their improved skills would also make them more confident and could help them in getting into the team in their future schools.

Achieving this goal could be done by having your kids go into camps where they will be trained and have practices under the supervision of a qualified coach. There are some soccer camps Calgary which are available for your kids to attend to and a reputable one must be chosen. After choosing though, preparing for it is needed specially when this is the first time your child will have.

Get them ready through letting them know of your plan on how to go to the camping area which includes driving there days before in helping them get familiar. Ask the management if having a tour is possible and show them the practice areas and where they would stay. Emphasize that no vital thing will happen which they would miss at home.

Show confidence on them that they would excel and thrive at camp because doing so helps them be confident too and increase chances of success. They can learn more concerning themselves, meet new people and try new things there. Discuss with them if you both feel nervous and have them understand how excited you feel for them in experiencing new things.

Start packing early, even weeks before, to avoid being stressed and forgetting some things and do this together. Check the list of what to bring provided by the management and slowly fill their bag and buy those you do not have. Doing this early will not only avoid those unhealthy emotions but give you time to visit the store when needed.

Advise them to have something from home that makes them feel comfortable brought such as stuffed animal, pillow or photo so they would still feel at home. Set goals together about what achievement they plan to have during the camp like improving soccer skills or making new friends. Ask about their goals and their progress when you call them.

Ready your communication plan with them and discuss the expectations that both of you have about these calls. You are given numerous opportunities in checking up on them while avoiding to jeopardize their camp experience. Make your conversations short so they will be able to get back in making new friends again.

Making new friends to other campers should be encouraged as much as possible because others came from different states or even countries. They can learn about the other campers more including their lives and experience with soccer that are helpful in making connection to others. Encourage having a continued connection with them even when the camp ends.

Get your child and yourself an early sleep the night before so you will arrive at the venue with great attitude and excitement. Make plans for dinner or something to do with them after the camp. This would be a great opportunity to allow your child share all their accomplishments and memories.
