[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone gone in the past? Worth it for a 14 year old ECNL boy? Feel like he’s outgrown all camps. Even overnight college camps are often younger and not too selective. He’s young for a true college ID camp to really be worth it. 
We do some private training but any other thoughts for that age?[/quote]

My kid went 1 year. They were honest -- the kid struggled as we admittedly were doing too many soccer things -- but they were jerks about it. And once they decided the kid wasn't good enough for THEM, they ignored and spent most of the time catering to players they eventually invited to go to their European camps.[/quote]

Speaking of the European camps, parents should be aware that they mostly cater to boys if this is what you're interested in. One week for girls, multiple options for boys.[/quote]

The year we went to Netherlands (Pro Tour), for the two age groups on our week, there were only about 3 girls per group and played with the boys. Exhibitions were against all boys. It was a good experience.[/quote]

Interesting, good to know. My daughter has gotten invites for various overseas camps and we've never accepted. The girls seem mostly like an afterthought.[/quote]
