First and foremost THANK YOU for choosing Camp Shutout West Michigan as your training ground for this summer. Below is information about the camp, what to bring and how to mentally prepare for Camp.
Campers will need to bring enough water to last each session. There will be no group water bottles or individual filling from a group cooler. Trainers can fill bottles for campers between sessions via a hose.

Our Staff
Our staff is one of the best in the country. It is not easy to become a staff member at Camp Shutout. It’s not just their ‘resume’ of goalkeeping experience, but their ability to teach the position and instill the passion for it in the next generation of goalkeepers. Use this resource to get the most out of them this week…they are here for YOU!
