The dates for the SFC Kaiserslautern/TSG Hoffenheim camp at Fairview Soccer Park (FSP) in McKinney, Texas has been set for July 13 through 16, 2016.  You can view details of the camp at AYSES Camps Website.  The camp will include players from Germany that will be visiting USA as a result of the partnership between AYSES Soccer Club and SFC Kaiserslautern.  The camp will be hosted by coaches from Germany. 

This will be a great opportunity for a player to have the experience of practicing and playing with players from Germany who will be attending the USA camp.  It will be a great opportunity for a player to match themselves against players from a top soccer nation.

The date has also been set for the trip to Germany.  Twenty-seven players will be travelling to Germany.  The date for the trip is June 17 through 27, 2016.  The first opportunity will be given to those that attend the SFC Kaiserslautern Camp in USA regardless of club affiliation.  If there are openings left, those openings will then go to AYSES players.  If there are still some left after that, they will go to applicant from other clubs besides AYSES.

Accommodation and food for those that travel will be covered by the host families.  Players will need to pay for their way to Germany and have money for additional activities beyond food and accommodation. 

Applications are now being taken and should be emailed to olalisamuel@gmail.com.  The application link can be found at Germany Camp Application Form.  The requirement is that every player that travels and lives within DFW Metroplex must be open to hosting a player from Germany when they visit USA July 7 through 17, 2016.  Deadline for application is March 31, 2016.

This is a wonderful and rare opportunity for a player and an experience that they will remember for the rest of their lives.  This exchange program is a result of the partnership between SCF Kaiserslautern of Germany and AYSES Soccer Club.  Every year, players from USA travel to Germany and vis visa.
