Challenger International Soccer Camps
FFSC has partnered with Challenger Sports to bring a pre-season soccer camp to the Fairfax/Fletcher area for 3-14 year olds. International specialist coaches will work with players on their soccer skills while having fun and letting your athlete spend time with friends. Challenger's 1,000 touch curriculum is taken to the next level as they provide expert instruction on every aspect of the game for the more advanced player in preparation for their upcoming seasons. These camps are the club's major source of fundraising to keep costs low. The club receives a percentage for each player registered.
Each year, Challenger Sports recruits international coaches to lead soccer camps all around North America, who are then hosted by local families.
Here's why hosting a coach is a trifecta of fantastic experiences:
1. Cultural Exchange: Hosting a coach from overseas offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in their culture, traditions, and language. It's a globetrotting journey from the comfort of your home.
2. Lasting Memories: Past host families have raved about their experiences, recounting tales of coaches who were gracious, engaging, and brought new perspectives into their home. Many have forged enduring connections, with children looking up to these coaches and parents bonding over international dinner conversations.The FFSC family who hosted in 2025 stated, " Coach Adrian and Coach Dylan have been absolutely wonderful to host. I would highly recommend if another family is even thinking about trying it to give hosting a shot!"
3. Soccer Savings: Host families benefit from a rebate of up to $100 on camp fees. The cultural enrichment for your family comes with the added perk of reduced costs for your child's camp participation - a double victory!
Challenger Sports, the leading soccer camp company in North America, has combined the most popular elements of their two existing industry-leading camp programs, British Soccer and TetraBrazil, integrating them into a collection of the most effective soccer practices used by youth teams around the world.
The Challenger International Soccer Camp reflects the truly global nature of the sport today and provides young players with a wide variety of coaching styles, practices, and influences that will help them develop a well-rounded skill set. Challenger Sports have taken the best coaching methodologies and practices from England, Brazil, Spain, USA and France and have woven them together in a multi-faceted on and off-field coaching experience.
Most camps will include a soccer ball, T-shirt, Poster, and Certificate!
