The Advanced camps are available to players over 9 who have been to Coerver programs previously or who have experience playing select soccer. The Advanced level teaches more complicated moves and swiftly puts players into competitive environments with an emphasis on 1v1 and 2v2 play in the morning. Small group tactics are also taught and small-sided games are played featuring fast break attack and counter attack.

The importance of fast transition play is stressed and players are encouraged to play creatively and freely and to use their new skills in games. Players are also put in many situations requiring decision-making as that is a key ingredient to advanced play. Advanced campers compete in the adidas 5-3-1 competition, each day where they are put in a series of competitive team environments and their scores are calculated each day. The teams and challenges change every day and each player’s scores are compiled throughout the week. The winner of the week long competition is recognized at our awards ceremony on Friday.

At all levels, games are played to encourage the use of the specific skills being taught that day. Nearly four decades of cooperative curriculum development affords us a finely tuned method for getting the skills incorporated into the competitive environment as quickly as possible while building confidence along the way. The difficulty of the moves we teach and the intensity of the competition increases at each level.

The Coerver® Ball Mastery Camp is open to boys and girls between 7-12 years. Soccer players are divided first by ability then by age into groups with a typical coaching ratio of 12 to 1. This soccer training program consists of (5) 3 hour sessions.  

The Coerver® Ball Mastery Camp develops individual skill in all areas of the game with emphasis on Ball Mastery and beginning Move Sets. To develop confidence, soccer players are given time to gain competence in new skills before defensive pressure is added. When a level of competence has been established, small sided games which encourage the use of new skills are played.
