The City of Bossier City Parks and Recreation is pleased to announce another year of partnership with Challenger Sports, providers of the USA’s most popular soccer camp, to host a week long British Soccer camps during the week of June 18^th – 22^nd and July 30^th – August 3^rd at the Soccer Complex, 3223 Old Shed Rd, Bossier City, LA 71111.

The camps will run Monday through Friday and each child will be coached by a member of Challenger’s British coaching staff flown to the USA exclusively to work on these programs. Challenger will hold over 4,000 British Soccer Camps this summer and will coach over 120,000 players between the ages of 3 and 18, as well as completing FREE coach education clinics for over 30,000 parents and coaches.

Challenger’s British Soccer Camp is more than a week of drills and skills. In addition to taking part in a daily regimen of foot skill development (through the 1,000 touches curriculum), technical and tactical practices and daily ‘World Cup’ tournament style plays, each child will be treated to a rich cultural experience and lessons on respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship.

Each camper will receive a FREE camp T-shirt, soccer ball, soccer poster, individual skills performance evaluation and free access to an educational soccer website. In addition, any child who signs up online at least 45 days (April 27^th) prior to camp will receive a genuine British Soccer replica Jersey valued at $39.
