Elite ID Camps

Elite ID Camps is a two-day, daytime women's soccer ID camp hosted by Eckerd College, a Division II program in the Sunshine State Conference. The camp runs December 12–13, 2026, at Johnson Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. It is open to club, high school, and transfer players aged 13–21 and costs between $133 and $239.

This camp is designed for a broad age range exploring Division II fit, particularly players considering mid-tier D2 programs and academic matches. The age span (13–21) suggests the camp welcomes early-exposure players alongside serious recruiting-stage juniors and seniors, as well as current college players looking to transfer. If you are a high school athlete actively pursuing D2 recruitment or a club player testing your level in a college environment, this camp fits that profile. Families evaluating small private colleges with selective admissions should note that Eckerd takes academics seriously in recruiting, so your academic profile will matter alongside your on-field performance.

Recruits should know that the head coach does not attend this camp, which means staff evaluation may be less intensive than at camps where the head coach is present. The daytime format also means less informal coach contact than overnight residential camps—you'll get college-style training, matches, and a Q&A session, but limited casual interaction. The two-day structure does provide more training volume and game time than a single-day clinic. At this price point and format, the value hinges on whether you're seriously testing Division II waters or seeking low-cost exposure; the lack of head-coach presence suggests this is a revenue-generating camp rather than a front-line recruiting event. No prior attendee reviews are available, so you cannot gauge feedback from past participants.

This camp makes sense for a 14–17-year-old club or high school player interested in exploring D2 options without major financial commitment, or for a current college player considering a transfer. It is less essential for a junior or senior with D1 ambitions or for families already confident in their college fit. If you fall into the exploring-D2 bracket and don't mind a daytime two-day format, it's worth the entry fee. Check with the school directly for any registration deadline, as none is listed here.
