Tavani Soccer Camp at Bunten Rd Park


The camps have grown in popularity each year and this year we offer players five weeks of action at three different locations (Jefferson Parks & Recreation, South Forsyth’s Sharon Springs Park and Duluth’s Bunten Road Park).

The camps are for boys & girls, ages 7-15. Also, back this year is the Elite camp from 12 noon-1:30 pm (after camp at the Duluth Bunten location), which is for the serious player who wants more soccer action (boys & girls, ages 10-15).

The camp staff is an experienced mix of top club and high school coaches along with college players. All of the college players were once coached by camp director and Georgia Coach of the Year, Gregg Tavani, and serve as role models to the young, aspiring campers.

Tavani Soccer goals are to increase young players’ skills, further develop each camper into a better player, and most of all make it a fun experience.

A goalkeeper coach is on staff.

The camp schedule is designed to be both intense and fun.
Experienced players will be challenged and beginning players will fall in love with the “beautiful game”.
Players are divided and assigned to a coach according to age and skill.
