The Delta Police Department is getting into the soccer game with a week-long camp this summer.
Open to boys and girls in divisions U6 to U12, the camp takes place Aug. 28 to Sept. 1 from 9 a.m. to noon each day at Dugald Morrison Park in Ladner.
Players will be placed into groups based on age and ability to ensure they are challenged appropriately, maximizing their development and, most importantly, having fun. Skills covered will include: shooting and finishing, passing, dribbling and turning, ball control and trapping, game situations, small-sided games, positional play, attacking and defending, and a mini World Cup.
Campers will be coached by and play with experienced, quality soccer players and coaches. Coaches will be members from the DPD with a soccer background and high level senior players from the community.
Players will be expected to bring proper attire for the weather, water bottle (there will be water on site as well), shin pads, proper footwear and sunblock.
Camp fee is $100 and it includes five days of good times, swag and a visit from a special guest. Partial proceeds from the camp will be donated to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
