Extremely Disappointing Experience I signed my son up for the half-day soccer camp expecting him to learn and develop soccer skills. Unfortunately, that was not what we experienced. My son even asked if we would stay at the park during camp, so between my wife, my mother, and myself, one of us remained there each day. During that time, we saw very little actual soccer instruction. The kids seemed to play kickball almost as much as they played soccer, and there was very little focus on teaching skills, drills, or player development. Another issue was how the games were organized. There were two separate age groups, a younger group and an older group. My son was in the younger group, yet when they played soccer or kickball, all the kids were mixed together. Having a 7-year-old competing against teenagers is neither productive nor beneficial for learning the game. The biggest concern, however, was the lack of supervision and response to bullying. My son was bullied by multiple kids during camp. Incidents included kids kicking him, taking his ball, and even grabbing his shoe and throwing it while they were on the playground. During the shoe incident, my mother had to step in because no coach was around to address the situation. Throughout these incidents, the coaches were nowhere to be found. I enrolled my son expecting a safe environment where he could learn soccer and build confidence. Instead, we experienced poor instruction, questionable organization, and a lack of supervision. If I could give this camp less than one star, I would.

They canceled they camp last minute due to lack of registration, but then stopped communication with me when I asked for a refund. I know the policy, and this was no fault of mine or childs. Very unprofessional to cancel your camp and then keep money.

Their refund policy in the case of an injury prior to starting the camp is terrible. They just keep the money you paid even if your child cannot attend. Not recommended.

Company does not honor their commitments. My son was signed up for Tiny Tykes soccer. The very first day of the program was canceled because the coach was sick. Then the following week, THE DAY OF, they canceled the entire program. We purchased all of the soccer gear for my child who will now be very upset that he doesn’t get to play.

Can’t say enough about these camps! Well-organized, cost-effective, amazing staff, great technical training for my son (6) and daughter (9) and most of all, FUN! Really set the bar high for the other camps we attended later in the summer. They are still talking about the end of camp World Cup competition and are both looking forward to another session during school vacation next year.
