A Unique Father & Son (Mom & Son) Soccer Experience
Join us for an exceptionally unique soccer camp that will build lasting memories and fine-tune your soccer skills.
MTA’s Father & Son Soccer Camp is designed to meet the goals of having a good time and developing skills of your son/s and moms and dads. Each participant will receive individual and group instruction in a fun environment designed to help kids maximize their playing potential. Dads/Moms can shake off some rust and learn (or relearn) skills from some of the best coaches available. Dads/Moms, there is no need for you to have a soccer background – everyone is welcome! Players and parents will be placed into groups that allow each player to be appropriately challenged.
** Bring your friends! Open to MTA and non-MTA families
