Payment will start on the 16th of September. At this time, we will be able to determine the consequences of the Covid pandemic.  For all attending, full payment is required prior to the start of the camp. Cancellation before October 10 guarantees you a full refund.

GETTING BETTER TOGETHER is the "heart and soul" of our training camp.  Our concept is to share our knowledge of the game with all European players and coaches.

The training camp will only take place if we can guarantee a safe environment for everyone involved. In September we will make a definite decision based on the facts we have at that time.
