Tricia Taliaferro’s 2004 Hurricane Soccer Camps

At the University of Miami

Residential Camp
June 13-17 * Girls ages 9-18

Co-ed Day Camp
July 26-30 * Girls/Boys ages 5-14

Summer Camp program
Whether you are a youth, high school, club, or ODP Player preparing for a successful college career, the Hurricane Soccer Camp will help you realize your goals. The curriculum for both or residential camp and day camp is demanding yet very enjoyable. Both the beginning and seasoned player will be challenged to their fullest. By the end of the week the players will have been exposed to the commitment and effort it requires to take their game to the next level. An experience staff will provide a fun and competitive environment for players of all ages to develop and refine their soccer skills. In the course of the week the players will learn the following techniques: heading, finishing, dribbling, tackling, passing, and receiving. In 11 v. 11 and small sided competition, players will be coached in tactical situations.

Instruction will be ability and age specific. For older players, a presentation on how to contact colleges will be given by a collegiate coach.

Goalkeeper School
Goalkeeper training will be an important feature of the Hurricane Soccer Camp. Goalkeepers will train separately from field players, with emphasis placed on technical, tactical, physical and mental aspects of this critical position. The Hurricane goalkeeper school is held at the same time as our other camps and the campers will receive the same exciting activities and benefits found in the Residential and Day Camps.
