FootHolde Select Camps I and II
The Most Challenging Minnesota Soccer Camps
The Select Camps provide a high quality and challenging training environment like no other camp in the region. Not only do we have the finest and most experienced coaches, but we also attract many of the top players across the state, which really pushes our players to compete “outside their comfort zone.”
Select I is FootHolde's first and foremost camp program - started in 2003 with 100+ Premier and C1 players competing at the highest levels. The demand has increased as more and more older players committed to working hard and improving come out each year. All Select Camps contain a Performance/Fitness Training Component in the curriculum. Daily guests and personal workouts are a part of helping players take their game to the next level.

FootHolde Camps (Academy-style camps)
The Most Fun Minnesota Soccer Camps!
The Academy Camps provide a learning and fun-filled training environment, provided by a highly experienced professional coaching staff. The camps are growing fast (hint, hint ...satisfied past FootHolders are telling their friends!) with players attending from all across the Metropolitan Area.
Academy-style camps are based on teaching the fundamental aspects of the game. The objectives are to teach technical skills, ball mastery (confidence with the ball), problem solving, new relationships, and good sportsmanship. In addition, players will also learn the importance of starting their own "street soccer" games, as they will be expected to set up and organize these games at the beginning of each camp day.
All Academy-style camps contain an age-appropriate Performance Training Component focused on balance, strength, agility, and movement education. These camps are mainly for younger players (ages U6-U14), and cater to instilling passion for the game while learning new skills.

FootHolde Club Camps
The Best Soccer Camps for Minnesota Soccer Clubs!
FootHolde Club Camps provide professional soccer camps to local youth soccer clubs in and across the Twin Cities Metro. Essentially, we work with each club to provide a discount for their players to attend a professionally run FootHolde camp in their own backyard (Club Camps are open to outside players). Provided by a highly experienced FootHolde coaching staff, Club Camps are similar to Academy-style camps -- based on teaching the fundamental aspects of the game in a fun-filled, flowing, and challenging training environment. The objectives are to teach technical skills, ball mastery (confidence with the ball), problem solving, and decision making in a small-sided environment. In addition, players will also learn the importance of starting their own "street soccer" games, as they will be expected to set up and organize these games at the beginning of each camp day. New relationships, nutritional advice, and good sportsmanship are a few life-skills components that are reinforced during the camp week.
FootHolde Academy Northwest was our 1st Club Camp (with more to come in the summer of 2009). With over 50 players attending, everyone had a blast and learned more about the fundamental aspects of the game. We are excited for a great this year in Elk River and hope to see other clubs jump on board to provide this great experience for their players.
