Elite Live-In Camps

The Elite Camp will be conducted by head coaches Bill Irwin and Garrett Smith. The coaching sessions will be designed by the Portland coaching staff to challenge players with advanced technical and tactical components of the game. The objective of this camp is to train in a highly competitive environment and make the most of your camp experience. Each camper can proceed at his/her own level of development. If you want to test yourself against the best then this camp is for you. 

Commuter Option 
Our commuter option is designed for the camper who wants to attend a full day of camp but does not want to stay overnight in the dorms on campus. Commuters will be dropped off at 9:00am each day and picked up after our evening session at 9:00pm. We will provide each commuter with lunch, dinner, and a room to rest in between sessions.
