School Holiday Camps
We run holiday camps in the half-term and term holidays throughout the school year. The camps last from 10am-4pm and we work on a variety of skills, including but not limited to:
- Defending
- Attacking
- Passing
- Dribbling
- Teamwork
- Speed & Strength
Whilst we like to develop their football skills, the days are always centred around having fun, and keeping the children safe. Our team of first-aid qualified, and FA qualified coaches ensure that all children are looked after, and have a good time.
Our last holiday camp ran at the end of July 2024, where we welcomed over 50 young footballers across the week. They were delighted with the visit of first team players Haydon Vaughan, Keane Anderson, Maxwell Mullins and more. First-team manager Tommy Widdrington frequently visits our camps, and he said, “It was great to come visit the holiday camp and see all the future footballers we have on our hands. Seeing them having such a good time really shows you the importance of the work we do in our community.”
All our young footballers who attend a camp are gifted a matchday programme and a fixture list for them to choose when they can attend a fixture at the EBB through the Community Stand Scheme!
Our holiday camps were highly rated in the 2023-24 academic year as 98% of our holiday camp footballers enjoyed their time with us! One parent told us that it wasn’t her son’s first time and that “the fact that he chose to come to Shots for a week knowing that his friends were booked to go elsewhere speaks volumes to the quality and welcoming personalities of the coaches, and to his enjoyment and how safe he feels. Thank you all very much!”.
We’re delighted to be able to offer these holiday camps in Aldershot over the next academic year and these will be held at The Cambridge Primary School in half-term and term breaks!
