PUHI — Fred Hsu, director of NSA, said on Monday he wants people to know the National Soccer Academy hosts two camps on Kaua‘i each year at Grove Farm Park.
Hsu is hosting the Kaua‘i Annual Fall Break Soccer camp for Hawai‘i, which started Monday and runs through Thursday at Grove Farm Park, taking advantage of the week-long break from school.
“We’re coming back for the winter camp starting Dec. 17 and continuing through Dec. 21 at Grove Farm Park,” Hsu said. “We just want the public to know so they can plan on having their children participate.”
Hsu was also at the North Vidinha fields Sunday, taking in some highly-contested soccer games by Kaua‘i Soccer Association teams who were enjoying the third weekend of its fall season.
The NSA was established in 1992, states its website. Since then, more than 10,000 soccer players have participated in its soccer training camps, and about 2,000 players, including several from Kaua‘i along with coach Kevin Devitt of KSA, have joined NSA soccer tours to Scandinavia and South America.
“We hope the players who traveled to Scandinavia had fun,” Hsu said. “And we hope they brought back something they learned while participating in these international tournaments.”
During the training camp at Grove Farm Park, billed as “intense high school pre-season training” and “Eurotour player selection and training,” Hsu said the camp is geared to prepare the player for the upcoming high school season with strong emphasis being placed on the technical, tactical and physical attributes of the players to enhance their soccer development heading into the high school season.
NSA International soccer Tour Player selections will be conducted in the afternoons.
