Summer ID Camp I

Summer ID Camp I is a one-day, coed ID camp hosted by Abilene Christian University in Abilene, Texas on June 6, 2026. The camp is open to 8th graders and up and costs $150. Abilene Christian competes in the WAC (Western Athletic Conference) at the Division II level. The format includes on-campus training, a campus tour, a college recruiting talk, and a goalkeeper-specific session, but participants return home the same day.

This camp is designed for early-exposure development rather than active recruiting. The 8th-grade starting point and coed format indicate this is a youth skills-building event meant to introduce young players to the college environment. Families exploring mid-level Division II programs and the recruiting process itself, or those with rising 8th–10th graders curious about college soccer, fit the intended audience. This is not an elite recruiting venue; it serves players in the early stages of development who want campus exposure and basic instruction from a collegiate program.

Recruits should know upfront that the head coach does not attend this camp, meaning the coaching staff is not actively evaluating for roster purposes. Instead, this is a training and introduction event. The single-day format and modest cost of $150 make it an accessible way to visit campus and experience college-level instruction without a large financial commitment. The camp includes a recruiting-process talk, which can be valuable for younger players just beginning to understand how college recruitment works. There are no published reviews on file to reference.

This camp works best for middle and early high school players seeking low-pressure exposure to a Division II program and campus experience. Families with rising juniors or seniors actively pursuing offers, or athletes targeting higher-tier programs, should look elsewhere.
