One thought on “‘British invasion’ on Prescott Valley’s soccer field

  1. British soccer camp by Yavapai Soccer is awesome. We noticed that our kids have ball juggling skills and aren’t very good in game situations. Soccer camp taught that a good way to improve is to practice settling and passing the ball. They had them kick the ball at a net-wall and practice settling it and shooting. Then they participated in mini-games and learned pace. Our daughter is 16 and my little brother is 13 and they play all the time. You don’t really have to have amazing skill to make a team. If a Yavapai coach sees that you really want it and are working hard, regardless of your skill level, he will most likely put you on the team. Great camp — highly recommended.
