Copa Beach Soccer Camps

Copa Beach Soccer Camps focuses on beach soccer and related skills. Campers take part in activities such as aerial skills, volleying, soccer tennis, and fun and fitness at the beach, with an emphasis on healthy and fun skill development at the beach.

• Ages: 6–14 years old

Copa Beach Soccer Camps are led by coach Andrew Carman. As a former Division I college and professional soccer player with a lifetime of playing and coaching experience, he provides players of all skill levels with fun, challenging daily sessions that allow campers to learn new skills that will take their game to another level. The camps were developed to encourage creative play in a calm, simple, fun environment to discover the essence of the “Beautiful Game.” Each registered camper may bring one new friend to camp at no additional cost.

Beach soccer at this camp is played in smaller five-a-side teams. The smaller field means more touches, which leads to quicker skill development as players’ vision, first touch, volleying, and aerial skills become second nature. Playing on the beach adds extra challenges that require skills such as better ball control, volleying, agility, and quick decision-making. The beach environment fosters a more relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, allowing players to grow their confidence while having the freedom to develop skills naturally without the pressure often associated with competitive soccer.

At Copa, the mission is about much more than soccer; it is about building confident, active kids who love sport in an environment where they feel safe, supported, and genuinely happy. The program also notes “Our Partners” as part of its community involvement.
