D1 College Soccer ID Camps in California (2026)

Division I camps in California are the highest-profile recruiting events in the state — the largest fields, the most competitive coaching staffs, and the tightest recruiting calendars. They are also the most expensive and the hardest to convert into real coaching interest if the athlete is not already on a coach's radar.

We track every active Division I college soccer ID camp in California for 2026. Each listing shows real dates, cost, location, and — where families have shared their experience — honest reviews about whether the camp delivered real recruiting value.

Fit context: D1 athletic scholarships are real but limited (typically 14 equivalencies for women's soccer, 9.9 for men's). Recruiting timelines run earliest at D1 — most rosters are largely set by junior year, so timing the right D1 camp matters more than attending many of them.
