What to Expect at an EXACT Camp
The itinerary for EXACT Soccer is very intense for athletes and is designed to test each athlete mentally and physically. Each day, athletes will participate in on-field training sessions led by active college coaches. In between field sessions, athletes will participate in classroom sessions focused on the mental approach to training. By focusing on both the mental and physical components needed to perform at a high level, athletes will leave the EXACT Soccer Camp prepared for success at the next level.
Aside from the athletes, parents also get excellent training during camp. EXACT offers lectures to better educate parents on the mental side of the game and enlightening ways to ‘Improve Your Son’s Potential.’ The camp also offers a round-table Q & A session with all coaches to provide answers for all your tough questions pertaining to recruiting, college soccer, and everything related.
