Players that use other airports will not have access to the GS shuttle bus available. Players are also welcome to arrive on their own by car.
EVALUATIONS (July 16th) & EXIT INTERVIEWS (August 3rd)
Players go through an athletic evaluation and skill testing. Our objective is to learn about the strengths & weaknesses of each player. The exit interviews will allow our coaches to convey our evaluation of each athletes current skill level and potential. Players and coaches will create a roadmap for ongoing improvement.
DAILY TRAINING & PRACTICE (Weekly)
Intense training during the week prepares our players for competition and gets them ready for their upcoming season. Our objective is to give them tools so they can continue training at home. Players will also spend these days studying with industry experts in business, marketing, and studying for the SAT/ACT. Building the mind and body is our priority.
COLLEGE CAMPUS VISITS & TOURS
Players will be given Mondays to rest and take advantage of their time near Washington D.C. Global Squad will visit college campuses so players get a feel for the process of applying and choosing a school.
