Georgia Southern Head Men’s Soccer Coach John Murphy has announced the 2021 JMESA Summer Camp schedule. Five of the six camps will take place on the campus of Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, GA with the sixth being held at our Armstrong campus in Savannah, GA.
“We are excited to announce our summer camp program for 2021 after a difficult twelve months for everyone.” Coach Murphy said. “Each year, we offer unique and affordable ways of connecting with the soccer community both near and far. Our staff and I look forward to hosting campers from throughout the state, the Southeast region and across the nation. Our camp programs are flexible and affordable, and we are proud of the quality of instruction, facilities and amenities that are offered. This is an excellent opportunity to learn from our coaching staff, as well as select guest coaches from the collegiate and professional ranks.
“The foundation of our JMESA program is a focus on individual coaching and skill development, regardless of the age or level,” Murphy said. “Technique development and match awareness is more important than ever in today’s game and these programs are used to add to the athlete’s growth and enjoyment of the sport.”
Additionally, the club or high school coach whose player attends any 2021 JMESA program will get one free admission to our fifth annual coaches’ symposium to be held in a virtual format this Fall.
