• Selwyn House Senior Soccer Training Camp

  6/30/2026
  Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

  Your son has been invited to participate in the Selwyn House Senior Soccer Training Camp.

  Thursday, August 13

  We have a practice at Selwyn House School. Students should arrive at school for 10:00 a.m.

  Soccer gear (including cleats, shin pads, Selwyn athletic uniform) and a water bottle are required. Students should bring a lunch as well.

  We will have a team meeting followed by an on-field practice at Westmount Park. The practice will end no later than 3:30 p.m.

  A more specific schedule will be sent later in the summer.

  Friday, August 14 – Monday, August 17

  On Friday, August 14th, we will meet at Selwyn House in the morning (probably between 7 and 8 AM, although we will have to confirm later in the summer based on field availability) and we will depart for Bishop's University.

  We will be running practices, tactical sessions, and scrimmages Friday–Monday and we will return back to Selwyn House School on Monday, August 17th mid-afternoon (subject to change depending on availability of other teams for friendly games).

  Your son will call you when he is an hour from the school.

  What to Pack

  All boys should pack the following items for the week:

  • Soccer gear (shin pads are mandatory and we have access to both turf and grass fields in terms of cleats)
  • Running shoes (we will go for a run one morning)
  • Water bottle
  • A fan for your room (optional, but based on which building we stay in, it gets hot)
  • A comfortable pillow
  • Closed shoes (slides/flip-flops/sandals are not permitted in the dining hall)
  • Comfortable clothes for after practices and meal times (include your Selwyn athletic gear)
  • Bug spray
  • Change (laundry machines are available)
  • Optional spending money (there is a Tim Horton's on campus)

  Cost

  The cost of the training camp (cost includes transportation, accommodation, and all meals) will be charged to students' accounts at the end of the soccer season.

  For the approximate cost of the trip, please consult this year's trip brochure or contact Mr. Mike Maurovich.

  Supervision

  During the training camp, the team will be under the supervision of:

  • Mr. Dan Elbling
  • Mr. Neil Banerjee
  • Ms. Meghan Dalton
  • Mr. Mike Maurovich

  Training Camp

  This training camp promises to be a great week of team building, physical and strategic conditioning, and friendly competition.

  Please note that attending training camp does not guarantee that students will make the team, but attendance does provide students with an opportunity to improve, to showcase their skills, and to demonstrate commitment and positive team spirit, all of which are valuable assets for coaches to observe.

  If you wish/are able to include your son on our trip, kindly complete the attached commitment form, as soon as possible.

  A more detailed itinerary will be provided sometime during the summer.

  Additionally, the weight room at Selwyn House will be open throughout the summer from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., with a strength and conditioning coach available to assist.

  Please contact Mr. Ryan Carey and/or Mr. Mike Maurovich for more information about training camp and/or summer hours.

  Sincerely,

  Dan Elbling
  Soccer Coach and Senior School Math Teacher
