Health and fitness are not just physical, but emotional and spiritual as well. Our camp is a Christian soccer camp and students each day will have the opportunity to learn from examples and stories from the Bible that can be applied to every day life. It is our desire that children are equipped to do their best in their soccer and to understand what it means to be a winner both on and off the field.
“Concepts of fairness and teamwork in the midst of a competitive environment will be the lasting skills that your children will take with them from our camp.” -Coach Garrick

Here's what Michelle
Akers, Olympic Gold Medallist of the
US Women's National team says about our camp...
"Sports are a microcosm of real life. In both areas, we experience and learn
how the importance of goal setting, discipline, teamwork, perseverance, risk-taking,
and losing and winning help us develop into healthy, vibrant individuals... This
is why I believe combining a quality soccer camp with the teaching of sound Biblical
principles is a great opportunity to discover and apply God's word to our every
day lives through the context of athletics. "
Ambassadors Soccer Camps are designed to give young, developing players an opportunity to learn basic and advanced soccer skills in a fun, positive and encouraging Christian environment. In addition to excellent coaching, we provide a daily life-related “Team Talk” geared toward communicating the life-changing principles found in the Bible. That’s what Ambassadors Soccer Camps are about! www.aisint.org.
