Here's what we've got going on:
Tuesday, May 28: 3 days of "Camp" Juggle
We’ll go through practicing clean, consistent touches, bringing the ball down out of the air, and finally high touches. By working on these skills you will improve your aerial control in games, build technique and accuracy when striking the ball with your laces, and strengthen your overall ball control.
The Euros begin on June 14 so to wrap it up, Techne Founder, Yael Averbuch, will share some insight on what the tournament is, why it's exciting, and how you can watch!
SECOND CHANCE AT "CAMP" JUGGLE! We will be running "Camp" Juggle one more time, June 10-12, for players to participate again and for anyone who missed out the first time.
Monday, June 17: 3 days of "Camp" Dribble
We will practice the major types of dribbling you need to master in a game: getting out of pressure, running at players, and freeing up space for a pass or shot. Learning how to practice these skills and understanding the different techniques necessary to excel in these areas will profoundly impact your ability as a soccer player.
Copa America begins on June 20 and once again, Yael Averbuch will be sharing the inside scoop on the tournament!
Monday, July 8: 3 days of "Camp" Wall Work
“Camp” Wall Work gets you passing and receiving at the wall, your most reliable training partner!

By keeping these skills sharp during the summer, your return to team sessions and games should be seamless, and you should see improvements in your speed of play.
In terms of the professional tournaments, Yael Averbuch will be giving an update on Copa America! It will still be ongoing.
