Soccer Camp

Registration TBD

                        Mission

The Catholic Soccer Camp exists to provide an opportunity for aspiring soccer players to unite their passion for the sport with their passion to know, love, and serve Jesus Christ and His Church. We provide the highest quality training offered by coaches with experience ranging from youth to professional level. Our priority is each player’s personal encounter with Jesus Christ through the sacraments, adoration, testimonies, and coach/player mentorship, preparing them to become Catholic leaders and disciples.
