Urgent Camp Location Information/Structure
We are excited to have everyone back for The Soccer Academy Summer Camps! As you may or may not know Elmhurst University has made a ton of campus improvements and really accelerated our brand! This summer (2023) we will be completely replacing our Turf Field, track, surrounding track amenities, entrances, adding a $350,000 State of the art Instant replay scoreboard, and overall creating a much better environment for all. Therefore, we will be hosting all summer camps at our Berens Park facility (493 N Oaklawn, Elmhurst) in Summer 2023. (Back on Campus in 2024)
Thank you for your support and cooperation while we improve our facilities! We look forward to seeing everyone at camp!

THE REVIEWS ARE IN!
"I wanted to write to you and let you know that my 9 year old son and 11 year old daughter had an incredible camp experience. All the staff members are very professional and take care of the kids every day. Each day they are so excited to return to camp and you giving homework is a great idea! Thank you for providing our community with such a great soccer camp."

“Coach DiTomassos Winter Futsal training is incredible. The coaches push you but are great teachers. They made my 9 year old daughter work hard every session but also make sure she had fun! We will be back.”
- Parent of Abby (9 years old)
"The Nike Elite 150 Camp at Elmhurst this past summer was an outstanding experience for our daughter. She got to work with some outstanding coaches from all levels of college coaching. They gave her great feedback and advice for pursuing her goal of playing college soccer. In our minds this camp was a key for building confidence and knowledge about soccer at a higher level. She came away from camp with a confident attitude that helped her as she approached the ODP Regional Tournament and Region II camp last July, and now the national training camp. That is a great group of coaches that work that Nike Camp at Elmhurst. I hope they continue to provide that experience for young ladies."

"This was my daughter’s first full day camp experience, and I can’t say enough about the staff and instructors at the Soccer Academy. My 8 yr old daughter’s confidence and skill has grown immensely, and she has since convinced me to sign her up for competitive soccer this upcoming season. We will be back!"
