2012 marks the second annual UCSB Summer College ID Camp on the campus of the University of California, Santa Barbara. The Camp features the entire staff of the 2004 NCAA National Finalists & 2006 NCAA National Champions Men's Soccer team. This two-day event is designed for advanced player development and exposure to the top college coaches. The camp is an ideal setting for players who have aspirations of playing collegiate soccer at the top level.

The Santa Barbara Elite Summer ID Camp field player’s session is designed for players who aspire to play at the collegiate level. The camp is a challenging program with training sessions stressing positional play and advanced team tactics. Daily demonstrations will be performed by current members of the UCSB Men's Soccer Team and led by top college coaches.

Players will receive first hand experience of UCSB Harder Stadium, the site of the 2010 COLLEGE CUP, and the #1 crowds in the country! The daily program will incorporate a campus tour and evening classroom sessions on NCAA recruitment and competition.

Enrollment in the camp is open to all players but will be limited to only 125 campers to allow individual attention for each player from the staff of college coaches. A combination of competitive training sessions and full 11 vs. 11 games will be at the core of the camp curriculum.

In the past the camp has offered players an excellent recruiting opportunity for UCSB and other colleges. There were six members on UCSB's National Champion 2006 squad who attended the Camp.

There will be only two ID Camps per year in addition to our two week long Elite Camps in the summer; the placement into each session will be at the discretion of the camp staff. The ID Camp is two days in duration beginning Saturday at 9am and finishing Sunday afternoon at approximately 5pm.
