The Metros Soccer Academy is founded on the principle that with the proper instruction and proper practice the students' learning potential is maximized. With this principle in mind Gerry O'Donnell, the camp's director, developed what many consider to be the ideal training environment ...quality instruction with the responsibility of proper practice handed over to the student in the form of "home practice." Young people have greater success when given trust and the opportunity to demonstrate responsible behavior. "Home practice" develops the students' ability to independently train, experiment and gain confidence with the techniques demonstrated at camp. The camp's curriculum covers the PHYSICAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL aspects of the game. The program is designed for the individual growth and development.
