Bluffton Youth Soccer Camps are hosted every year, by the Bluffton Men’s Soccer team, for the local kids in the Bluffton area. “The Bluffton Soccer Program makes it a point to help out the community as much as we can every year” said Coach Steve Smucker.
Every fall the Bluffton Men’s Soccer team helps coach youth soccer players from the Bluffton area. These camps are held to help the kids get better in soccer.
The men’s soccer team does different types of community service throughout each year, but always makes sure they have a chance to help the local community with something they like to do.
These camps are as much for the kids as they are for the parents, and players. Everybody wins in this situation. The kids learn soccer skills and have fun. The parents get free time. The players get experience coaching and get to help the local kids.
Some of the activities at these camps include scrimmaging, storm the castle, fox in the hen house, and technical drills. Most of the youth that are being coached at these camps are between the ages of 6-12.
The kids have a blast and look up to the soccer players turned staff at these days of training. The camps usually are held one day for two to three hours.
The day of the youth soccer camps falls on youth day for the Bluffton Men’s Soccer Program. The same day the players help coach the youth players, they have a game later that same day introducing not only the regular roster but the youth players at the game as well.
This day is one that is very special to each kid that comes to the camp and, or game. “You can tell how much it means to the kids. So it feels good doing something that makes them happy” said Junior Jason Hudson.
