LA FINCA CAMPS
La Finca Futbol Camps are perfect for all young futbolers looking to improve their skills while having a lot of fun in an action-packed and light-competitive environment during the summer. Our Day Camps are designed for beginner to high-intermediate players 6 to 13 years old. (Younger players will be considered for our half-day program. For older players interested in our Day Camps, just email us first and we'll let you know if there is a suitable number of other players their age. We'll never enroll players if we think they won't love the experience.) See below for specialty programs, Futsal for Futbolers, our Pre-season for HS female players and our Residential Camp.
Academy-level players 12 and up should consider our PRE-SEASON & FUTSAL CAMPS

DAY CAMPS
-
Half & full-day options. Hours, 9am-12pm & 9am-2:00pm. Drop-off at 8:30am included
-
All La Finca Day Camps are coed
-
Beach soccer and water activities (but no swimming) at the Kingston Point Beach location
-
We will create groups after the first day based on 1) skill level, 2) age, and 3) friend groups. While we infuse all of our programs with skill-appropriate, developmental training, we see the summer as a special time to experience the love of the game and to build lasting friendships.
-
Every day has a different soccer theme shared across all leveled groups, calibrated appropriately to each one. And all groups participate together in our Soccer Olympics and World Cup Days on Thursday and Friday of each week.
-
No two days are the same in our weeklong programs, but everyday is thoughtfully planned.
FUTSAL for FUTBOLERS
This intensive camp is for beginner to experienced futbolers who may or may not have prior futsal experience. The trainers for this camp are unique. All are experienced futsal players. Futsal (futbol de salon) is a 5v5 game played with a soccer-like ball on a hard surface, typically hardwood like a basketball court. A futsal ball is smaller and heavier than a soccer ball and futsal has unique positions and formations. It is not just indoor soccer! Invented in Montevideo, Uruguay in the 1930s, futsal is now played professionally around the world. Many if not all the best soccer players in the world played futsal growing up. Some, like Ronaldinho, still do! Because Futsal demands much greater ball control than soccer it is widely recognized as an essential practice for all high-level soccer players. We in the US are late to the game, but there are now national championships and annual youth futsal leagues cropping up in almost every major city.

Asher, Kingston, NY
My child enjoyed playing higher level soccer! He also enjoyed the Kingston camp which gave him time to play on the beach on a hot summer day!
Community based. Focused on learning a style of play not competition.
