Seals Junior Camps will expand significantly this year. The Seals have arranged for fields for 8 weeks during the Summer period. Last year the Seals Juniors staged their first camp and it was tremendously successful. Even though there were mixed ages and a nearly equal mixture of girls and boys, all the children had a great time and the feedback from the parents was very positive. The philosophy of Seals Junior Walk-In clinics was and will continue to be the philosophy of Seals Junior Camps. Attention to the individual needs of players and thoughtful guidance are the hallmarks of the approach.
This year the Seals will also host its first High School Camp. The camp is open to ALL high-school aged players, male and female, looking to fine-tune their skills and tactical abilities, and jump-start "getting their game on" for the upcoming school soccer season. It is the inspiration of Dave Nugent, a San Francisco soccer enthusiast and parent, and Zeke Lopez, the Athletic Director of San Francisco Waldorf High School. The two of them got together and decided that a high school camp to prepare the players for the Fall season made sense. The Seals coaches are looking forward to helping these high schoolers get ready for their soccer season.
The Seals Clinics and Camps are managed by SFUSC, the Seals 501c3 affiliate, and the coaches are all current or ex-Seals players.
