Week 2
Soccer Camp
Instructor: Jose Cornejo, St. David's School Varsity Soccer Coach
Grades: 3-8
This camp is led by St. David's School Varsity Soccer Coach, Jose Cornejo. His philosophy, which is the foundation of this camp, is that in order for soccer training to be effective for young athletes it must include two key elements: students must experience both fun and success. Both of these elements come as a result of disciplined and demanding training. Campers will be grouped according to age and ability. About the instructor: Coach Cornejo believes that in order for athletes to become complete soccer players they need to become 100 percent confident in their ability to control the ball with all parts of the body. His method is based on this belief. Once the foundation for ball control is established, the skills of shooting, passing and dribbling will be introduced.
