2nd Week of Camp

Friday concluded the 2nd week of camp for the Tiger Staff on site at Scott County High School.

The week went really well for the SCHS boys. We were able to cram in nine sessions with the guys during the week. With that many sessions and very little time for rest, the guys had tired legs by the third day.

The Scott County boys are a team that can have two very different kinds of seasons in the fall. There is a ton of potential on that team, along with players having gained quality experience in the spring with some top level club teams in the area. I can see that team having a 10 win season very easily. As an alum of Scott County Soccer, there is nothing I would love to see more that these guys pull it together and get it done this fall.

The Cardinals could easily have a 10 loss season as well. During the week, it was obvious that most of the players were not guys who pushed themselves to the limits during training. They constantly had to be pushed by the staff to get the work out of them. If they are serious about being successful, they are going to have to dig down deep and really push themselves for the whole season so they can see how good they can be.

The next stop for the Tiger Staff will be a camp in Hazard KY in the 3rd week of July. Until then, the blog will have updates on how two of our incoming freshmen, Brian Swanson and Riley Williams are doing at Regionals next weekend.

Camp Season Has Begun

June ushers in warmer temperatures throughout he country and signals an end to the school year.

For Georgetown College Men's Soccer, June means the beginning of camp season. The Tiger Staff will be working camps for teams all across the state this summer.

Last week marked the first camp of the summer at Dawson Springs High School in Dawson Springs, KY. Coach David Campbell has a great group of kids that will challenge for their district crown this year.

Monday, the Tiger Staff will be conducting a camp for the Scott County High School team.

In the coming month, Georgetown soccer will be in Hazard, Ryle High School, Lincoln County, Harrison County, and Lawrenceburg Christian Academy.

Throughout the summer we will post on the progress of these camps.
