Experience Football
With CAMP SUMMERS USA

Working as a specialist football counselor at a summer camp in the United States is an opportunity to share your passion for a universal sport in an international, active environment full of community. Football attracts children and teenagers of very different levels: some have played on teams for years, while others just want to try a fun activity with their friends. As a specialist, your mission will be to create training sessions, matches, and activities that allow everyone to learn and enjoy themselves. Your experience can also bring an international perspective to an activity that is becoming increasingly popular in the United States. Beyond technique, you will help campers feel part of a team and discover values that go beyond the field of play.

Teach Football to Your Campers

Responsibilities

Your tasks will include planning sessions, preparing the field and equipment, explaining drills, and adapting activities to the level of each group. You will be able to work on ball control, dribbling, passing, receiving, shooting, defending, off-the-ball movement, coordination, and basic tactical concepts. You will also organize small-sided games, possession games, technical challenges, circuits, and internal tournaments. It will be important for sessions to keep a dynamic pace and for everyone to have plenty of opportunities to touch the ball and take part. Some groups will need simple explanations and playful exercises, while others will benefit from more technical challenges. Your ability to observe, correct in a positive way, and modify the activity when necessary will help each participant find an appropriate challenge.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

People with experience playing, coaching, refereeing, or teaching football are valued, although each camp sets its own requirements. Patience, energy, leadership ability, and clear communication with children and teenagers are especially important. You will work in English every day, live alongside counselors from other countries, and gain useful skills such as planning, group management, conflict resolution, and intercultural communication. If football is part of your life and you would like to share it in a unique summer experience, working as a specialist counselor in the United States can help you grow professionally while creating unforgettable memories with the campers.

SAFETY FIRST

Football is a very powerful tool for teaching cooperation, communication, discipline, and sportsmanship. Campers learn that a team works when its members listen to each other, respect the rules, and support those who struggle more. As a counselor, you will be able to reinforce effort, attitude, and fair play above the result. You will also help young people manage emotions: celebrating a win with respect, accepting a defeat, recovering after a mistake, and keeping a constructive mindset. Group activities encourage friendships between participants from different places and levels of experience. Your leadership can turn the field into a space where every child feels valued, has the opportunity to progress, and understands sport as a shared experience.
