2026 Technical Skills Camp - Week 2

University of California Irvine
Quick Facts
About This Camp
UC Irvine's 2026 Technical Skills Camp — Week 2 is a three-day day clinic held June 16–18, 2026, in Irvine, California. The camp is coed and hosted by a Division 1 program. It focuses on ball mastery and technical development rather than team-based recruiting evaluation, with two hours of daily training built around ball skills and small-sided games for players with prior experience.
This camp is best suited for younger or less-experienced players seeking technical skill development in a college setting, rather than committed high-school recruits pursuing D1 roster attention. The coed format at a program with separate NCAA men's and women's teams suggests this is a developmental skills clinic rather than a recruiting ID camp. Players should expect instruction-focused training, not the competitive showcase environment typical of college recruiting camps. Families exploring UC Irvine as a potential match should use this camp for technical exposure, not as a primary recruiting venue.
Prospective attendees should note that the head coach does not attend this camp, meaning the coaching staff is not actively evaluating participants for recruitment. The format is three consecutive days of day training, so there is no overnight residential component or extended informal coach contact. No cost information is publicly listed. Because this is a skills-focused clinic rather than an ID camp, roster and recruiting decisions are not part of the expected outcome. Players should come prepared to work on individual technical elements in a group setting.
This camp serves families wanting structured technical training at a college facility rather than those pursuing active recruiting. If your primary goal is D1 recruiting exposure and evaluation, a camp with head-coach attendance and team-based gameplay will be more strategic. Families focused on skill development before entering the serious recruiting cycle will find better value here. Check directly with UC Irvine for registration deadlines and any updates to pricing or format.
