California City, CA, USA
Gino’s Soccer Academy has been running for nearly three decades, welcoming tens of thousands of players from beginners to advanced competitors. The camp combines serious skill development with a fun, upbeat atmosphere: younger players focus on building joy, ball-touch confidence, and a love for the game, while older players receive targeted training on attacking moves, decision-making, and positional play.
Each day begins with individual work and small-group drills, progresses into small-sided games, and often ends with full-scrimmage games — ensuring children experience both structured training and game-like fun.
This camp is ideal for children aged 4 to 17 years. For very young players (ages 4–5), the half-day option is especially recommended, as the full-day program may be too long for their stamina. If your child loves soccer (or you’re hoping to spark that interest), enjoys learning in a group, and is ready for a week of energetic play, teamwork, and progress, this camp could be a perfect fit.
