Camp Philosophy

The JB Soccer Academy is in its sixteenth year of providing quality soccer instruction to our soccer community. Campers will improve their technical and tactical skills in an encouraging and positive environment. The Academy emphasizes the development of soccer fundamentals through many individual, challenging ball-skill activities, games and small-sided scrimmages. Campers will be grouped according to age and ability. A mid-day break during the full-day camp includes lunch at the picnic area, swimming (during standard weeks) at the Howard Community College or a nearby Columbia Association pool, and watching of soccer or Disney videos in an air-conditioned environment (see below for a detailed outline of activities). The Academy is a Maryland certified day camp and meets the state of Maryland’s requirements regarding health, safety and emergency procedures. A full-time certified trainer is present at the camp at all times.
