2026 Technical Skills Camps - Week 2

UC Irvine's 2026 Technical Skills Camps – Week 2 is a four-day women's Division 1 clinic held June 16–19, 2026, in Irvine, California. This is a day camp (no overnight option), meaning participants commute to campus each day. The camp focuses on technical skill development rather than full-roster evaluation. UC Irvine competes in the Big West Conference, a mid-tier Division 1 league.

This camp is best suited for rising high school players (likely grades 9–11 based on the "technical skills" framing) who are exploring D1 soccer and want on-field instruction from a college program. It's not a recruiting showcase in the traditional sense—there is no head coach present to formally evaluate for scholarships or offers. Instead, it functions as a skills-development clinic that happens to be run by a D1 program. Players interested in UC Irvine's program specifically, or who are geographically accessible to Southern California, may find value in direct exposure to the coaching staff and campus environment. For families considering UC Irvine as a potential academic or athletic fit, this is a low-pressure way to get a feel for the program.

Families should know that because the head coach does not attend, this is a teaching clinic rather than an active recruiting event. The four-day format does provide more training time and exposure than a single-day camp, which is useful for skill refinement. No cost information is listed, so contact UC Irvine's athletics department directly for pricing. There are no published reviews for this session yet, so prospective attendees cannot draw on past participant feedback. The day-camp structure means early mornings and Irvine-area logistics will matter for families outside the region.

This camp works well for younger players who want quality technical instruction in a college setting without the pressure of formal evaluation. Players already committed to or deeply interested in UC Irvine specifically will benefit from direct staff interaction. Families should pass if they're seeking active head-coach recruiting contact or if travel to Southern California is impractical. Confirm cost and registration deadlines directly with the program before committing.
