Housing and Supervision
We provide ’round-the-clock protection for Sports School’s participants. Campers are housed in the same University Residence Halls as the coaches and staff, who are available to them 24 hours a day. Three nutritious meals are served daily in the university dining halls. Sports School participants are not allowed to leave the campus without written parental approval and notification of the coaching staff.

The curriculum is designed to educate college prospects as to what intercollegiate soccer is all about. More specifically, what soccer at Miami University is all about. Players will be exposed to the physical, technical, tactical and psychological demands of division I college soccer. All sessions are conducted by the Miami University coaching staff and assisted by Miami University team members. Seven members of the 2010 Miami Varsity Team are former Miami Prospect Camp participants.
