About
Julie Foudy Soccer Camps offers soccer training that includes exercises, drills, and small-sided games, along with leadership activities in the afternoon. Campers take part in a leadership curriculum emphasizing mental health, leadership, and resilience, and participate in the Julie Foudy World Cup at the end of the week. The camp also includes Q & A sessions for the entire camp and parents, as well as organized autograph sessions.
• Ages: 7–18 years old
• Schedule: Monday, June 22 – Thursday, June 25, with half-day soccer camp from 9:00 a.m.–Noon and full-day soccer and leadership camp from 9:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. (ending at noon on the last day)
• Price: Half Day Soccer Camp: $250; Full Day Soccer & Leadership Camp: $450
During the mornings, all campers take part in soccer training from 9:00 a.m.–Noon, and full-day campers stay for lunch from Noon–1:00 p.m. and then continue with leadership and soccer from 1:00 p.m.–3:00 p.m. (ending at noon on the last day). Leadership activities are age-appropriate and focus on athlete mental health, team building, and resilience, and the curriculum uses a mixed-ability teaching approach for campers of different skill levels. The camp welcomes players who want to work on technical and tactical aspects in a functional game-situation format as well as mental health and leadership concepts.
Campers receive a Nike camp t-shirt, a Nike soccer ball, autograph and photo opportunities with staff, and a complimentary Julie Foudy Soccer Camps group photo. A highly popular Q & A session includes National Team players, professional players, and top collegiate players who share what they have learned. Autograph sessions are organized so that no camper misses the chance to have a favorite item signed, and the Julie Foudy World Cup rounds off the week with World Cup medals for the newly crowned World Champions.
All campers are asked to bring a refillable water jug, soccer cleats, shinguards, and sunblock, and full-day campers also bring lunch and sneakers, as flip flops or slides are not allowed during afternoon programming. Julie Foudy Soccer Camps notes that registration is closed and the camp is sold out for 2026, with no walk-ups or waitlist spots available.
Julie Foudy Soccer Camps is celebrating 31 years. The camp is part of the broader work that began when The Julie Foudy Sports Leadership Academy was launched in the summer of 2006. The leadership team includes Julie Foudy, former USA Women’s Soccer Team Captain, two-time Olympic Gold Medalist, and two-time World Cup Champion, along with her husband Ian Sawyers, former head coach of the WUSA San Jose Cyberrays and the 2001 WUSA coach of the year, and their colleagues Kerri McClellan, Edson McClellan, and Todd Smith. The program’s stated philosophy is to bring out not only the best player, but also the best leader, in each athlete.
Julie Foudy has said, “I wanted to enable young players to have FUN with the same exercises, drills and small-sided games used by the US Women's National Team, top collegiate programs and women's professional teams. We have reformulated these impactful exercises for young athletes. I want to pass on to our athletes my great passion…the concept of BEING A LEADER on your team and a LEADER IN YOUR LIFE.” Julie also often says, “Sports gave me my voice.” Many camp photos are provided by Mike Bray and Karen Osato Wells, and many USWNT photos are provided by Sideline Sports Photography, LLC. Some staff members have played at the very highest level in women's soccer.
