Hi everyone,
In partnership with the New York Red Bulls, Newfield Soccer Club has offered a summer camp the past two years for the children in our program. In the summer of 2008 the participation was approximately 20 kids. The participation for the Summer of 2009 was 16 kids.
The club would love to see the participation level in the summer camps increase. In an attempt to reach this goal, we ask that you take some time an provide us with some input. With this input we can probably make some modifications to make the camps more attractive and increase the level of participation.
Below are some questions we would liek to have you answer but feel free to add more.
Questions:
- Are you interested in a soccer summer camp for your children?
- Were you aware of the Newfield Soccer Summer Camp?
- Did your family participate?
- How was your child's experience if you did participate?
- If you did not participate, was there a specific reason (expensive, not interested, bad week)
- If you did participate, what did you or did not like about the camp?
