Preparing For Soccer Camps Together With Your Kids

By Barbara Price


Kids who like playing soccer and a member of their school team wants to improve their performance when playing. This helps them be chosen by their coach to play regularly on matches and contribute more for their club to win. Their improved skills would also make them more confident and could help them in getting into the team in their future schools.

This goal can be achieved by letting your kids go to camps where they would be trained by qualified coaches and practice what they learn with others. There are soccer camps Calgary that are available for them to attend and choose a reputable one. If your child is attending one and it is their first time then help them prepare themselves for this activity.

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 confidence on them that they would excel and thrive at camp because doing so helps them be confident too and increase chances of success. They can learn more concerning themselves, meet new people and try new things there. Discuss with them if you both feel nervous and have them understand how excited you feel for them in experiencing new things.

Start packing together early for avoiding stress and in forgetting things so being this task week before the activity. Check the list that the management has provided on what to bring then fill their bag with these slowly and buy those you lack. If this is done earlier then avoiding unhealthy emotions will not be the only advantage but more time is also available in completing the list.

Advise them in bringing something which will help them feel at home and comfortable even when far from your house such as a pillow, photo or stuffed animal. Set goals together concerning what they plan to achieve during camp such as making new friends or improving soccer skills. When you call them there, ask for progress of these goals every time.

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 in making new friends with other campers as many as possible because some came from other states or countries even. They can learn more about the lives and experiences in soccer of other campers which helps them connect to different kinds of people. Encourage them also to keep the connection even after the camp has ended.

Have an early sleep on the night before the activity so you are fresh and excited when you wake up. Make plans after the camp ends like dinner. Give this chance for your child to share their memories and accomplishments there.
