Varsity Camps | Men's Soccer ID Prospect Clinic

Bard College's Men's Soccer ID Prospect Clinic is a single-day recruiting event held on June 28, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the school's athletic facilities in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York. The camp is open to high school players in grades 9 through 12 and costs $125. Participants receive lunch and a camp t-shirt, with separate registration tracks for field players and goalkeepers. This is a day camp with no overnight component.

This event is designed for players exploring D3 soccer programs and interested in getting on Bard's recruiting radar. The broad grade-level window—9th through 12th—means the camp welcomes both early-exposure players and upperclassmen actively being evaluated. D3 recruiting is more flexible than D1 in timing, so younger attendees can use this as a low-pressure introduction to college soccer evaluation, while juniors and seniors can use it as a direct recruiting opportunity. This fits families considering a selective liberal-arts college fit at the Division III level.

Prospective attendees should note that the head coach does not attend this camp, which means the evaluation is handled by assistant staff. This is typical for D3 prospect clinics and still provides meaningful exposure to the program, but don't expect head-coach-level decision-making input during the day. The $125 cost is modest for a full-day event with meals included, making this an affordable way to test fit without major financial commitment. The single-day format means less informal contact time than an overnight or multi-day residential camp, so come prepared to stand out during competitive field sessions and focused skill work.

This camp suits families with genuine interest in Bard's program or the Annandale area, and younger players who want early recruiting exposure in a low-pressure environment. If you're a sophomore or junior with other D3 priorities in the region, it's worth the investment. Skip it if you're narrowly focused on D1 recruiting or if you're unsure whether Bard's academic and athletic profile matches your goals. No registration deadline is posted, so monitor the school's athletics website for final details closer to June 2026.
