What the week looks like

Sessions are run by our own coaching staff alongside young coaches coming through the club, at a ratio of one adult to every five children. Mornings lean towards technical work and afternoons towards small-sided games, and the whole thing is pitched so a child who has never played gets as much from it as one who plays every weekend.

You do not have to be a Summertown Stars player to come.

What to bring

  • Football kit, with boots and shin pads
  • A named water bottle
  • A packed lunch and snacks, strictly nut free
  • Layers and waterproofs, because the 3G has no shelter

Things worth knowing

Drop-off and collection

Please bring your child to registration rather than dropping at the gate, and tell us in advance if somebody else is collecting them.

Medical needs and allergies

Tell us when you book, or on the morning. What you tell us stays with the coaching team.

Phones

Better left at home. If one comes, it stays in the bag.

Bad weather

We will let you know as early as we can. The camp usually runs anyway.

Questions before you book?

Nigel Hart runs the camp. Email him on nigel@summertownstars.org and he will come back to you. Once you have booked, the confirmation carries the numbers to ring on the day.

Not looking for a camp? Join a team instead. We take players all season, and a place in a squad is a different thing from a week of camp.
