2002 Soccer Camp Directory SOCCER AMERICA IS PLEASED TO PRESENT its 31st Annual Soccer Camp Directory. It is the most complete listing of soccer camps available anywhere, containing over 1,500 sessions in over 1,000 locations. This directory is published to benefit youth soccer players throughout North America and is dedicated to these young people. If you are looking for a camp in your area, start with the section that begins on page 26. These camps are grouped by region. If you are looking for a camp during a certain week, begin with the Camp Calendar listings on page 54. Camps that run all summer, but have chosen not to provide us with a complete list of sessions, will not appear in the Calendar section. Summer soccer camp is a time of great expectations. Whether you want to become a pro star of the future or just want the opportunity to spend time with your favorite sport and increase your skill for the next season, you will be able to find a camp that fits your needs. Some day camps will come to your community. Look for these special camp listings. Many of the camps listed in this issue are new. Others have returned time and again. The best camps understand the hopes and aspirations of youthful soccer players and want young campers to cherish the memories of a very special summer experience. Soccer America does not sponsor, recommend or endorse any camp, and we advise you to thoroughly investigate any camp in which you are interested. The information provided in these listings is taken from forms submitted by camp organizers. Check with camps to find out if any information has changed since we received PHOTOS COURTESY OF JOE MACHNIK'S their forms.
