Summer Camp - Roland Park provides girl high school soccer players with aspirations of playing college soccer an opportunity to be trained and evaluated by the Johns Hopkins coaching staff.  Campers will also interact with some of the current Hopkins soccer players. Our Hopkins players will assist campers throughout camp and offer a glimpse into what it’s like to be a Hopkins soccer student/athlete.

The camp is a mixture of tactical and technical training sessions and competitive play.  Camp will take place at the Roland Park Country School.  This site is less than a 5-minute drive from Johns Hopkins University.  You are allowed on your free time to walk through the JHU campus.  We will not provide housing but there are a number of hotels surrounding campus or in the Baltimore area. This camp will be limited in size.

No. We heavily encourage the campers to interact and communicate with their coaches. This communication should provide honest feedback as well as suggested areas of improvement. Although there is no guarantee, we hope that the coaches offer to be references for the players that they have overseen at camp to schools of their appropriate level.

Yes. There will be a college coaches' panel for campers to ask questions regarding the college recruitment process and the overall college experience. The camp set-up gives the college coaches in attendance an opportunity to get a comprehensive evaluation of a player on and off the field throughout the week.

Coaches at the Blue Jays Soccer Camps consist of the coaching staff of the Johns Hopkins University.  We are hopeful to add some college coaches from other institutions, but it will depend on the MD sporting group size restrictions.  Our Hopkins players will also be present to assist with the campers.

You will need to secure you own lodging for camp.  There are a number of hotels in the area surrounding JHU campus or in the Baltimore area.

Required Items

  • Soccer Shoes (be sure to break in your shoes before camp if they are new)

It is important to physically prepare in advance!

The Blue Jays soccer camp is designed for the development of players who are serious about the game. To accomplish this, the majority of the day will be spent on fields in either training or game simulations. To get the most out of the academy, it is essential that you report to camp physically fit and prepared to work hard in order to achieve your goals. Failing to heed this advice will increase the chance of injury and simply mean you will be unable to maintain the same level as your opponents.
