Northeast Opportunities for Wellness, Inc. is partnering with Challenger Sports to offer a week-long soccer camp this August.  The camp on August 19-23 at Logee Park, 488 East Putnam Road in Putnam.  There will be two sections offered for the camp:  A Tiny Tikes camp is offered from 6:00 p.m. – 6:45 p.m. each day for children ages 3-5.  A two-hour program is offered for kids age 6-14 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. each day. 

Challenger Sports, the leading soccer camp program in North America, is combining the most popular elements of their existing industry-leading camp programs, British Soccer and TetraBrazil, integrating them into a collection of the most effective soccer practices used by youth teams around the world.

The soccer camp reflects the truly global nature of the sport today and provides young players with a wide variety of coaching styles, practices, and influences that will help them develop a well-rounded skill set.  Children will be exposed to the best coaching methodologies and practices from England, Brazil, Spain, USA, and France.

Costs are $80 for Tiny Tikes and $120 for the two-hour program.  Financial Aid is available through NOW for the full cost of the camp and can be requested by calling Lindsay at 860-382-5522.  The camp will include a free soccer ball, t-shirt, poster, and certificate.  Camp participants will receive the iChallenge App and 20 free skill-building videos.
