As the number of soccer players in the USA nears 20 million, the number one soccer company in the United States, Canada and Australia, Challenger Sports, has been invited to hold one of their nationwide programs of British Soccer training camps in Martinsville, VA, at the Smith River Sports Complex.
The state-of-the-art Smith River Sports Complex on Irisburg Road has teamed up with Challenger Sports to host the week long British Soccer Camp during the week of July 13th – 17th.
The camp will run Monday through Friday and each child will be coached by a member of the Challenger’s coaching staff flown to the USA exclusively to work on these programs. Challenger will hold over 2,000 British Soccer camps this summer and coach over 100,000 players between the ages of 4 & 18.
Challenger’s British Soccer Camps is more than a week of drills and skills. In addition to taking part in a daily regimen of foot skill development, technical and tactical practices and daily tournament style play, each child will also be treated to a rich cultural experience with lessons on respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship.
The Smith River Sports Complex is offering British Soccer camp sessions for the following ages:
Ages 4-6 9:00am-10:30am $95
Ages 4-6 10:45am-12:15pm $95

Teams are welcome to attend and receive a week of focused instruction to prepare for the fall season.
Each camper will receive a free camp t-shirt, soccer ball, giant soccer poster and an individual skills performance evaluation. In addition, any child who signs up online at least 45 days prior to the camp will receive a genuine British Soccer replica jersey (value $39).
Space is limited – parents are encouraged to sign up online in advance! To sign up for the camp, either visit www.challengersports.com or contact Carol Horvath at 800-878-2167 ext. 239 or email chorvath@challengersports.com.
