FLORENCE, S.C. - The Francis Marion University women’s soccer program will host the Elite Soccer Training Center residential camps this summer on the FMU campus.

The camp will be divided into a pair of sessions.  Both residential camps are for girls, ages 14-18, and will be held July 23-26, 2008 and July 27-30, 2008.

The cost will be $435 for campers staying on campus, and $375 for commuters.  A $40 team discount is also available for groups of 12 or more that register together.

Each residential camp will focus on increasing each individual’s playing technique, both at speed and under pressure.  Campers will also work to improve tactically through the use of small-sided games and 11v11 matches.  Goalkeepers will also receive special training.
