RIT Men’s Soccer invites you to join us for a great training experience. RIT's ID Camp is a residential camp for boy’s grades 9 and older seeking exposure to the collegiate soccer environment. The camp will provide young players an opportunity to elevate their soccer skills & prepare to play at the next level.
Training sessions will provide young players an opportunity to improve their technical ability and tactical knowledge of the game. RIT’s coaching staff will instruct campers within a challenging environment that promotes playing in both small-sided and full-sided game scenarios. Evening games will give the players the opportunity to put their skills to the test and showcase their individual and collective ability along with other high caliber young players preparing to play collegiately.
In addition to field instruction and competitive opportunities, RIT's ID Camp prepares young players for the next level by providing a “total body & mind” approach to optimum soccer performance. Nutrition, dynamic stretching, speed and strength training, sports psychology and the college recruiting process will all be addressed by the coaching staff. One on one interaction with the coaching staff is a key element of the structure training approach by staff.
While at camp, campers will utilize the same facilities as RIT’s soccer athletes. During their stay, campers will reside in RIT residence halls and all meals will be provided by RIT Dining Services, to provide participants the opportunity to get the full experience of Rochester Institute of Technology.
