- Highly qualified Dutch professional coaching staff
Our Dutch coaches eagerly give instructions, ask questions, encourage players to make their own suggestions, provide examples of good and poor decisions, get players to show what they want to do, and demonstrate winning concepts themselves.

Unlike some camps, Dutch Soccer School strives to keep a low player to coach ratio, ensuring that maximum attention is given to each camper.

Dutch Soccer School coaches are well known for being experts in the world's finest soccer skills teaching method: the Coerver Method. All Coerver skills require a high degree of "Ball Mastery." Our intent is to challenge every player to improve their skills to the extent of their own ability.

We use game realistic exercises that incorporate every key element of soccer. Players will improve there insight and communication by participating in real soccer situations, and accepting the consequences of the decisions they make. Each phase in the learning process has special objectives. Objectives are always clearly explained.
