Testimonials
“My son attended your camp last week and LOVED every minute of it! He loved his coach, the training, the demonstrations, the games, the practice and the accommodations. Oh, and let’s not forget the food…what 15 year old is not impressed by an all you can eat buffet! He feels like he learned a great deal and improved his game and although he was exhausted when we arrive home, he says he wished it were much longer. He can’t wait to go back next year. As a parent, I want to applaud you on a very well run camp.”
“My sons have always enjoyed your camps and my oldest got recruited from another school at one of your Id camps, so always a positive experience!” –R.E. -Huntsville AL
“My son had a great time. I was not sure at first on sending him, since he is only 10 years old. I think the camp gave him more confidence playing against older kids from various states. Thanks for everything.”
“My high school team and I chose to come back to Coach Getman’s soccer camp this year because of the great effect that it had on the boys season last year (the most successful in school history). The highly qualified college coaches at the camp benefited the boys skills, tactics, and unity, and I was able to learn a lot as well. I can already see how our second year at camp is inspiring the team to achieve new heights next year. I highly recommend the this Soccer Camp for high school teams!”
– Coach Artigue -Louisiana High School Team

We would recommend this camp to any athletes looking to have a great soccer experience” —Team Manager in Winnipeg, Canada

“My son had a great time attending your camp and is already looking forward to next year. The coaches were great and having the opportunity to train and compete with competitive players was rewarding.”
“…the camp met my expectations… to improve my speed of play, work on my finishing, and help with quicker decision making when in procession of the ball. Thanks Coach Getman for a job well done.” — Camper
“This was my sons first year of attending the camp and he is already wanting to go back!! He loved every minute of it! Thank you.”
“This summer my son attended his seventh consecutive soccer day camp. Across the board, the soccer camp coaches, staff, trainers, and programming are excellent. My son has honed his technical skills and gained valuable insight from college players into the game he loves. The Mike Getman Soccer camps are not summer childcare options; they are top-notch opportunities for training and competing. The skills assessments my son has been provided at the end of each camp are honest critiques of his weaknesses as a player that have given him specific ideas toward improvement in the targeted areas. I simply cannot say enough good things about the Mike Getman Soccer Camps” ——-A Birmingham Soccer Mom
