Local soccer players can “train like a pro” this summer.
Marco’s Pro Soccer Camp kicks off in 100 Mile House in August.
The camp, led by former professional Switzerland player and coach Marco Bueller, is geared toward players with some previous experience and runs Aug. 17-21 (for ages 8-12) and Aug. 24-28 (for ages 13-15).
Players must sign up by June 30.
For registration details, phone 250-593-4431 or email marco. bueler @ bluewin.ch.
Cost is $235 and includes lunch provided by the Happy Landing Restaurant.
Bueler promises technical and tactical drills, a low player-coach ratio, maximum participation from each player and a high number of touches on the ball.
The camp is something 100 Mile House & District Soccer Association representative Werner Heine says is very valuable with respect to player development.
“It’s an all-around education on how to be the best athlete you can be,” Heine says. “We don’t have that kind of knowledge in our ranks. We’re really excited about it.”
