Girls College ID Camp

Pepperdine University is hosting a Girls College ID Camp on June 29–30, 2026, in Malibu, California. This is a two-day, non-residential Division I recruiting event organized in partnership with Malibu Soccer Academy and featuring coaching staff from Pepperdine and other California college programs. The camp costs $735.

This camp is designed for high school girls seriously considering Division I soccer and willing to test themselves against competitive recruits in a West Coast context. Pepperdine competes in the West Coast Conference, a mid-tier D1 league. The two-day format and involvement of multiple California college staffs suggest broad exposure rather than a single-program deep dive. Families with recruits on realistic D1 trajectories—particularly those interested in West Coast schools—will find value here. No specific grade or class-year bounds are listed, so the camp likely welcomes a wide range of high school ages, though D1 ID camps typically draw from sophomore onward.

Recruits should note that the head coach does not attend this camp, which means evaluation is handled by assistant staff rather than the program's top decision-maker. That said, the two-day overnight absence is offset by the multi-day format itself, which provides extended opportunity for coaching staff to observe play and progression. At $735, this is a premium-priced camp; families should budget accordingly and confirm what that fee includes (meals, training sessions, film review, etc.) before registering. Pepperdine is a selective private school in a high-cost area, so academics are part of the recruiting lens here.

This camp works best for girls in the D1 recruiting pipeline who want to test themselves against competitive players and get direct exposure to West Coast college programs without committing to a single school's event. Families seeking head-coach evaluation or a deep-dive into one program's system should look elsewhere. Confirm the registration deadline with the camp directly, as it is not listed.
