Girls from all over New York and New England attend our Camps in the Berkshires of Massachusetts. Athletes come to the Academy to improve their soccer skills in a uniquely fun and positive environment.
New York Girls Soccer Camp
The Berkshire Soccer Academy for Girls on Plunkett Lake is a unique state-of-the-art athletic facility dedicated to girls’ and women’s soccer in western Massachusetts. The Academy is located in the quaint town of Hinsdale, Massachusetts, less than 2 and a half hours north of New York City. It is 75 minutes from Bradley International Airport (located between Hartford, CT & Springfield, MA) and from the Albany, NY Airport. Free airport pickup and dropoff is provided. Campers come to the Academy from throughout New York including Long Island (Nassau and Suffolk) and Westchester County, Rockland County and Albany and surrounding communities. We provide a great girls soccer experience by focusing on individual skill development in a fun and positive environment.
Overnight Girls Soccer Camp Program
The Academy is the only overnight soccer camp for girls to infuse balance and fun into a world-class soccer training experience. Our focus on providing elite coaches and facilities in a fun environment makes us one of the best overnight soccer camps for girls in Massachusetts.
We make our athletes better soccer players and better and more well-rounded young women. Girls at the Academy on Plunkett Lake receive elite training on our top-quality facilities from qualified and experienced coaches. Our goal is to provide a fun and balanced place for every girl to elevate her game to the next level. We focus on player improvement in three main areas: physical, mental and social; while deliberately infusing fun and balance into the learning process. As one of the few specialty soccer camps set in a traditional camp environment, we encourage our athletes to train hard on the field, and then enjoy a relaxing elective activity, like standup paddleboarding or pickleball to decompress and enjoy down-time with friends.
