CHS Summer Soccer Training Programs

Updated July 8, 2022

Two skill-development programs are available this summer for Columbia High School boys soccer players.

Boys Soccer Summer Camp

This program will run daily from Aug. 8-11, 8:30am-12:30pm at Meadowland Park.

  • Trainers: Coach Muirhead and CHS coaching staff
  • Focus: Possession and dribbling skills, attacking and finishing skills, individual and team defensive skills, small and large-sided play and conditioning.
  • Cost: $185
  • Sign up here

Skill Development

Ball mastery, speed and agility, and positional training sessions with Sammy Adjei, an NCAA head coach and former professional soccer player. This program will run from July 11 to Aug. 11, twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays from 5:15-6:30pm.

  • Minimum commitment: 5 of 10 sessions
  • Cost: $300 for 10 sessions; $150 for minimum 5 sessions; each additional session $30.
  • Sign up here.

Two important notes. First, we don’t want anyone to miss out because of economic hardship. The Boosters will offer financial assistance to those in need. Second, these programs are purely optional and do not impact a player’s chance of making a team.

Thank you,
CHS Boys Booster Committee

2022 Tryouts: Letter from Coach Muirhead to 8th Grade Families

The 2021 freshman team after their last game.

Hello 8th Grade Families,

My name is Coach Muirhead and I wanted to reach out to all of you in regards to your sons’ participation in the high school soccer program at Columbia High School. I’ve had a few parents already email me regarding tryouts/vacation/etc… so I figured it was best to put together this correspondence.

Tryouts for this fall will begin on Monday August 22nd. Tryouts typically last four days, although this does vary depending on the number of players that come out for the team. Two years ago we had 110 players tryout and we ended up going 5 days to make sure we got a good look at everyone. Last year the number was 87 players and we ended up making our decisions in 4 days.

I will detail more “tryout prep” below – once tryouts are completed we immediately roll into our preseason which takes us right up to our first game on Friday 9/9/22.
