BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: ELS and The Soccer Academy are proud to offer a combined language and sport program at the prestigious Cate School, located just south of Santa Barbara in beautiful Carpinteria, CA. It is an idyllic camp location, surpassed only by the exceptional training and experience participants will receive.
Founded by the head coaches at UCLA and UCSB, The Soccer Academy has been training youth players for 44 years in Southern California and Arizona. In addition to the twice a day technical training, campers also participate in scrimmages and week-long tournaments designed to integrate their newly learned skills into real game situations. The ELS program is completely integrated into the camp day offering eight ELS classes each week designed to help campers improve their English conversational skills and speaking confidence. Players are grouped by age and ability into teams that are under the supervision of our professional staff of college coaches and professional players.
We will also offer a second language option for those soccer players who are looking for a more intenisve ELS language program. In this scenario, campers will first participate in the ELS language camp held at Pepperdine, then transfer to the Cate School to enjoy the remaining two or three weeks of their program with the Soccer Academy. This option offers 15 language classes each week versus the 8 lessons per week offered with the Cate School program. ELS teachers supervise both langauge programs
