OVERVIEW
A SUMMER SOCCER CAMP LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE
So you love soccer, right? Well, so do many of the Tico youth in our community! And what better way to share culture and develop friendships across borders than to have a passion or hobby in common?
GoTico! will bring together Middle & High School students (ages 13 - 16) from outside Costa Rica to engage in five (5) days of soccer training with Tico coaches alongside Tico peers, as well as regional tourism excursions, before participating in an amicable weekend competition towards the end of the trip. By no means do you have to be headed towards a professional soccer career (although you could be:)… we invite any and all who simply have a true love for the sport.
Spend half your day in soccer training while you spend the rest of the time exploring some of what makes this region & community so amazing.
-
Hiking through a Biological Reserve, across the longest suspension bridge in the region
-
Visiting a butterfly garden and examining some of the wildest caterpillars and most beautiful butterflies you've ever seen
-
Exploring the Sarapiqui River by boat, spotting sloths, howler monkeys, iguanas, and maybe a caiman or two
-
Kayaking in an extinct volcanic crater, the deepest lake in Costa Rica
-
Touring a wildlife refuge at sunrise, getting to listen to and watch as tons of bird species such as parrots, toucans, and macaws bring the forest to life at dawn
-
Hiking to mountain waterfalls, taking in some of the most breathtaking view points of an entire mountain valley
-
Learning at Arenal National Park, located at the base of an incredible volcano
