CAMPS AND CLINICS
The Cardiff Sockers offer a variety of engaging and educational camps throughout the year for field, futsal, and beach soccer. Most of our soccer camps are open to players of any level, from any club, unless otherwise noted.
Recreational and Competitive clinics are held regularly throughout year. Dates, times and locations will generally be announced at least two weeks in advance.
Cardiff Sockers competitive players participate in our Specialty Training Program (STP), led by our Technical Director, Mark O’Sullivan. The STP provides opportunity for players to focus on individual development outside of the regular team trainings. STP sessions encourage and instill regular player participation and passion in the game, improve player game fundamentals and IQ, and provide access for further development as people and players. Each month’s STP sessions will be centered around a different concept or focus such as technical challenges, position specific sessions with video analysis, game scenarios, and mini-tournaments.
Our competitive team goalies train with Chris Toth, keeper for the San Diego Sockers and member of the U.S. National Beach Soccer team. Trainings are held weekly throughout the year. Keepers are added to the training schedule by their coaches.
