Our camps feature energetic, professional coaches, individual soccer development, team-building, fun fitness activities, character development, and coordination/balance/agility development. Registration for camps include personalized camp certificates, player evaluations and an end of camp prize!
A NOTE ON HEALTH & SAFETY ON SOCCER ISLAND
Your child’s health and safety is our #1 priority. That’s why we’ve developed a series of protocols that allow for a safe return to play. We’ve been carefully working to meet every requirement of the Oregon Health Authority’s guidance for summer camps. We’ve modified many aspects of our operations and curriculum and will be asking you to make some modifications too.
As we return to the field, we’ll be doing it together in these key ways:
SMALL GROUPS THAT DON’T MIX
The #1 thing we are doing to reduce risk is maintaining small groups of 10 or less and not permitting visitors of any sorts. This means, all week long at camp, your child will be playing with a maximum of 9 other players and 2 coaches. Camps with multiple groups will neither mix players nor staff. By maintaining what the state and CDC call a “stable cohort” everyone’s risk drops dramatically.
CLEANING, SANITIZING & DISINFECTING
We’ll be taking more steps than ever to ensure players, coaches and equipment are safe for play. This means we’ll be washing equipment before, during and after class. We’ll be washing hands, before, during and after. We’ll also be asking families that enroll to commit to coming “clean” and washing again after playing. Together, we can do this.
CURRICULUM ADJUSTMENTS
From increasing social distance, to removing all touch and high fives, our curriculum has been modified at a national level by experts we don’t have direct access to here and then vetted and adjusted to ensure it meets all state and local guidelines.
TRUST & COMMUNICATION - FEVER OR COUGH? STAY HOME
It may or may not be COVID, but if a caregiver, a player or a coach develops a symptom that the Oregon Health Authority has flagged, we’re not allowed to have you on the premises. This means we’re all trusting each other.
COACH TRAINING, INFO & RULES
As role models who teach children to follow rules, we’ll be following the rules of the Oregon Health Authority, and our national franchise system. To do that we’ve attended dozens of webinars and consulted with medical, sport, and governmental experts to put in place protocols that will be well above board and safe.
Together we can reduce the risk that in our camps and in our community while also starting to get so many of the emotional, social, psychological and physical benefits of Soccer Shots.
