Preparing Together With Your Kids For Soccer Camps

By Barbara Price


Kids that like to play soccer and members of school team want to improve their playing performance. This helps them get chosen more often by the coach to play on matches regularly and contribute more to get a win for their club. Their improved skills will also make them confident more and could help in getting them into the team of their future schools.

Achieving this goal could be done by having your kids go into camps where they will be trained and have practices under the supervision of a qualified coach. There are some soccer camps Calgary which are available for your kids to attend to and a reputable one must be chosen. After choosing though, preparing for it is needed specially when this is the first time your child will have.

Let them know your plans of going into camping area so they will get ready including going there days before for familiarizing the place better. Ask the management to allow you a tour of the location and show them their lodging and practice areas. Emphasize that anything of importance will not happen at home when they are away.

Show your confidence of them thriving and excelling at the camp which helps them to more likely succeed there. They can meet new people, try new things and learn more about themselves there. If they or you feel nervous then talk about these emotions with them and let them understand that you are also excited for them to have new experiences.

Start packing early together to avoid stress and having to forget some things even weeks before their activity starts. Check the list provided by their management on what to bring and fill their bag slowly with them and buy the ones you lack. Avoiding unhealthy emotions is not the only reason for doing this early but also more time is available for you to complete the list.

Advise them to have something from home that makes them feel comfortable brought such as stuffed animal, pillow or photo so they would still feel at home. Set goals together about what achievement they plan to have during the camp like improving soccer skills or making new friends. Ask about their goals and their progress when you call them.

Have a plan of communication ready and discuss this with your child so they would be clear about what the expectations are. Many opportunities will be given to you for checking them in without their camp experience being jeopardized. Have short conversations with them through cellphone so they could go back into making new friends.

Encourage them to make new friends as plenty as possible with other campers because some are from different countries and states. They could learn more regarding the lives and the experience in soccer that other campers have which helps them in connecting with various kinds of people too. Encourage to keep ways on contacting their new found friends.

Get your child and yourself an early sleep the night before so you will arrive at the venue with great attitude and excitement. Make plans for dinner or something to do with them after the camp. This would be a great opportunity to allow your child share all their accomplishments and memories.
