COLLEGE PREP SOCCER ACADEMY
SOCCER Sessions
Our sessions are coached by experienced college coaches with USSF A licenses and/or Masters degrees in soccer coaching. These sessions develop player's technical and tactical ability by exposing them to a college level training environment that is challenging and fun. 1-Day camps emphasize skill training methodology and activities that players can use on their own, or with small groups in order to exponentially improve their game.
RECRUITING COURSE
Our recruiting course is designed to walk players through the recruiting process, so that they understand everything they need to do to get recruited. The course is broken down into six lessons that include assignments that campers can work through during and after the camp. During 1-Day camps, we quickly review this course and show players how to work through the lessons so they can follow the process on their own time.
foot Work and Movement Skills Training
If you are a musician you must learn and master scales. If you are a soccer player you must learn and master proper foot work and movement patterns in order to be quick, agile and able to master the ball in every context.
Over decades we have developed a program players can use on their own, or with small groups of people to develop fundamentals in soccer movement. These will transfer to being quick, balanced, explosive and controlled with the ball. In our 1-Day camps we will take players through these sessions and teach them the routines and the proper technique to build powerful training plans they can use to improve for years to come.
SPORT PERFORMANCE COURSE
This classroom course is an overview of sport performance science. It teaches players how to assess and increase their levels of commitment and gives the "cliff notes" version of the basics of sport nutrition, strength and conditioning, and sport psychology. Navigating these topics can be overwhelming and hard to apply. We also know that 80% of most people's results come from about 20% of what they do, so we have assimilated decades of research and pulled out the key priorities that athletes should focus upon to see big results without getting overwhelmed by too many ideas. Simplify your game plan. Execute your plan. Get Results. That's our motto!

CAMP FOUNDER & DIRECTOR
Jenny Jaggard is the head women's soccer coach at Westmont College. She has 15 years of coaching experience and holds an M.S. in Soccer Coaching Education. For the past eight years, she has worked as a college coach and recruiter and has a passion for helping female soccer players realize their dreams of playing college soccer.
After working nearly a decade of college ID camps all over the country, she decided that there was a need for developing a camp for serious players that emphasizes player development and the skillsets necessary to get recruited by college coaches. As a result, she decided to found College Prep Soccer Academy. This camp is unlike other college camps because it focuses in-depth on player and personal development, equipping players with the tools to train more effectively, while helping players to navigate the recruiting process, and begin the process of self-discovery in order to find a college experience that matches their athletic and academic values and goals.
Jaggard runs these camps with a qualified staff of college coaches with diverse coaching specialties in order to ensure that field players and goalkeepers receive the highest level of training and insight into the college experience.
