Soccer Day Camps with Tampa Elite Soccer Academy are for Boys and Girls ages 5 to 13 years old.
All campers need to bring the following:
Recommended List:
View the “What To Bring” Page for more information.
Water/cups are provided at all sessions, campers can bring a water bottle if they want. It is recommended that all campers bring their own water bottle.
There is a camp store with snacks for purchase. Having some money to spend in the soccer camp store is recommended. We recommend loading this in the soccer camp store bank each morning, so no camper has money hanging around. TESA Soccer Camps are not responsible for any lost money at camps that is not in the camp store bank.
T-shirts will be provided for Soccer Youth Day Camps and we will distribute camp T-shirts on Friday mornings (last day of soccer camp). If your son or daughter cannot attend the final day, be sure to notify the camp staff that can make arrangements to get your camp shirts.
Campers are grouped by age and ability. Campers will be evaluated first, then moved to appropriate level as long as it is not a safety issue.
Campers moving up in age group must be able to hold their weight playing with older campers.
We will not move campers down that present a safety issue for campers.
Player movement at summer camp is determined by the staff, coaches, and camp directors after the evaluation period on day 1.
Head Staff to Camper Ratio is 1-10/15 campers. There is also an assistant staff coach that will assist each head staff coach.
All Coaches and Staff are Level 2 Background Checked and Finger Printed – this is University of Tampa and a State Law in Florida.
Prizes are awarded at the end of each week. TESA Soccer Camps feel prizes provide a positive experience for the campers and reward campers who have excelled individually or as a team.
Not all campers get a prize nor do the prizes make players better than others.
In the event of ties, it is the discretion of the Soccer Camp Coach on how the tie is broken.
If tallies are being counted for golden boot (most goals in the World Cup competition), players will need to stay on top of goal counts and make sure the goals tallied reflect the goals they feel they have scored for their team.
If a camp is FULL, it will read “SOLD OUT/CLOSED” for that week on the soccer camp website. Summer Soccer Day Camps will be at capacity at 140 campers.
If a camp is sold out/closed, we cannot add additional campers for liability reasons. Please look at another camp to attend.
Soccer Day Camp Evaluations can be given to parents and campers at the end of camp in a meeting with their staff coach. Honest feedback is our goal in providing evaluations for campers.
Emails with specifics on the camps will go out to the email address parents registered with the camp between 1 to 2 weeks prior to the camp starting.
If you have not received an email and are within 1-week of the soccer day camp starting, please contact us at mo.tesacamps@gmail.com
