Summer Day Camps - Session 2

Emory University's Summer Day Camps—Session 2 is a four-day men's soccer clinic running June 15–18, 2026, in Atlanta, Georgia. This is a day camp (not overnight), so participants commute to campus each day. The camp is structured as a skills and training clinic rather than a formal recruiting ID event.

This camp works best for younger players—likely middle school through early high school—who want exposure to a Division III program and a chance to develop their technical skills in a structured environment. Emory is a selective academic school, so families interested in exploring the intersection of academic rigor and college soccer will find value in seeing the campus and program firsthand. The clinic format means less emphasis on competitive evaluation and more focus on instruction and player development. This is a good fit for families in the Southeast who want a low-pressure introduction to college soccer without the recruiting intensity of an ID camp.

Because the head coach does not attend this camp, it is not a primary recruiting evaluation event. The staff conducting the clinic may take notes on talented players, but there is no guarantee that performance here will directly influence recruiting conversations later. The four-day format gives participants multiple training sessions and more exposure than a single-day clinic would provide, which can be valuable for skill development and getting a feel for the program's coaching style. No cost information is listed, so families should contact the school directly for pricing and lodging options if they are traveling from out of state.

This clinic suits families seeking a development-focused experience at a strong academic D3 program rather than a high-stakes recruiting venue. If your son is a rising 9th or 10th grader, or if you are primarily interested in skill work rather than roster evaluation, this is worth considering. High school juniors and seniors targeting Emory for recruitment should look for the school's formal ID camp if one is offered, or attend other events where the head coach is present.
