Curriculum: The St. Lawrence Girls Soccer Academy (STLGSA) is designed for girls ages 13 and up and will focus primarily on preparing players to compete at the collegiate level. The camp combines individual skills with team tactics to enhance the development of each player.

Campers will be exposed to challenging training sessions to improve decision-making and speed of play. Competitive evening matches will also enhance development and provide players the opportunity to showcase their abilities to some of the best Division I, II, III, NAIA and JC collegiate coaches in the region. Many current St. Lawrence players will also be working at the academy.

This academy will allow players to also have a taste of what college soccer is all about on one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. Players will use the same facilities that the St. Lawrence University teams have access to, which have been recognized as some of the top facilities in the country. The academy members will also interact daily with college-level players, and live in the dorms that the students stay in during the school year. Goalkeepers will receive specialized training and all campers will have the opportunity to play in a full game setting.
