ONE DAY CAMP

(AGES 4 & UP)

DC Way is excited to start One Day Camps on short holidays and most teacher workdays during your child’s day off from school! DC Way’s camps provide a fun, positive, safe, and non-competitive environment for all children. Our philosophy is that players learn best when they are having fun. All campers actively participate, move, laugh, kick, jump, complete drills, and have a ‘moment to shine’.

  • Dates: November 4, 5, 11

We offer a new topic, skill set, and life lesson at each camp to build a strong foundation for our players. In just a day, you will see changes in your child’s motor skills, emotional intelligence, decision-making ability, spatial awareness, self-confidence, muscle coordination, and more.

One Day Camps are for any child at any skill level. Even without ever playing soccer before, we guarantee your child will enjoy our camp. Click the locations below to join the fun!

We use simple and engaging games to teach campers essential soccer, communication, and social skills. DC Way’s coaches will support players in improving technique, building confidence, and developing a love for the game!

We only play games that are fun, exciting, and beneficial to players because they can learn a lot by playing.

Within these games, each child can learn and use all the vital skills being emphasized throughout the session!
