payment. Full refunds (less $50 service fee) will be issued only in
case of disabling injury certified by qualified physician. Full payment
is due 14 days prior to camp start.
Q: What is the staff to camper ratio?
A: We plan on having between a 10:1 and 15:1 ratio of campers to staff.
Q: What type of supervision will there be?

Each group of 10-15 campers will have a counselor responsible for them
all day. In addition senior staff will be supervising activities during
the day and at night in the dorms. There is at least one staff room in each
dorm.
Q: What do campers do in their free time?
A:
There is very little free time with the number of sessions we are
having. Players usually rest or utilize the pool which is located in the
gymnasium on campus
and staffed with a supervisor.
Q: Will campers be allowed off campus?
A:
No. While enrolled in the AHA Soccer Academy, campers are
required to remain part of the camp. If a parent would like their child
to leave camp for any period of time, they need to speak to the Camp
Director as soon as possible.
Q: Can parents or relatives visit camp?
A: Yes. You are welcome to watch training at anytime. Please identify yourself to our staff upon your arrival as soon as possible.
Q: Where will the campers be eating their lunch?
A: All meals will be at the AHA dining hall. Campers will be walked over and back by the staff.
Q: Are there phones in the dorms?
A:
No. There will only be a communal hall phone for emergency local calls.
Please encourage all
campers to bring cell phones to call home and for emergency purposes.
Q: Who are my
roommates?
A: If you put a roommate request down on your application we do everything possible to honor that request.
Q: How many people to a room?
A: That all depends on the specific dorms we get on campus. Usually
there are two or three people to a room.
Q: Where will the players be able to fill up their water bottle?
A: On the practice fields we have usually 6-10 places they can fill their water bottle.
Q: Is there still space available to register for camp?
A: If a camp is closed, it will be posted on the web ASAP.
Q: Is there medical staff available to handle injuries and illnesses?
A: We have a certified athletic trainer on staff that stays on campus with the camp.
Q: What do you do in case of rain?
A:
If it is only raining we usually continue to play unless the fields
become unsafe. In the case of thunderstorms and lightning we move the
campers indoors to a safe place. We continue to monitor the storm with
a lightning meter and also over the internet and only retake the fields
when it is safe.
Q: Will each player get a written evaluation?
A: Yes, at the end of camp their coach will give them an evaluation of their skills.
Q: Are the dorms air conditioned?
A: Yes.
Q: What if my child is a goalkeeper?
A:
There are goalkeepers in all of our camps. Please sign your child up as
a goalkeeper if you would like them to train with the goalkeepers the
entire week.
Q: Is there any free stuff?
A: Yes. Everyone receives a free camp T-shirt.
Q: Where do we play?
A: Our fields are located on the campus of the American Hebrew
Academy.
Q: Is there a deadline to register?
A:
Acceptance into our camp is a first come, first serve basis. Once we
receive a signed waiver and application with a deposit check or payment
in full, then you will receive an acceptance notification via email.
Q: What if I have an emergency and need to get in touch with someone while my daughter is at camp?
A:
You can leave messages at our office (336-217-7000 x 8501) or you
can call the front gate of the Academy at 336-217-7120 for prompt attention.
Q: Can I park on campus?

direct you to the parking lot nearest the fields.
