The Milan Junior Camp (MJC)
is the children's summer vacation soccer camp organized by the famous AC Milan
football club from
the Italian Serie A League and carried out by local organizations
(Sporteventi is the selected soccer camp manager).
The soccer training sessions, depending on your site, will be lead by AC
Milan soccer legends such as Pierino Prati (now Manager of one AC Milan
Soccer School), Gino Maldera (now Manager of one AC Milan Soccer School) and Filippo Galli
(Head Coach of AC Milan Primavera, U21 youth team of AC Milan) known as
the
AC Milan supervisors
and supervised by Otello Di Remigio, official youth scout of AC Milan
Youth teams and Sporteventi coach.
The camp is not a soccer camp full of rigid training
exercises, nor is it designed to immediately produce champions. It is a
soccer camp designed for having fun and playing with the other boys, a soccer camp spent learning to respect each other
and learn new skills.
It is an important time to stimulate soccer players sense of
responsibility and to learn the important value of rules and education.
In fact during the past few years the camp has received
groups of 30 children from Washington. Today it still hosts smaller
groups from the USA, as well as youngsters from
Venezuela, South Africa, Germany, England, Belgium, France, Switzerland,
the United Arab Emirates, Croatia and Russia.
The camp provides a truly International experience for
all of the players who attend.
The camp has a
large number of Italian players (more than 80% on average)
AC Milan prized the
2007 Milan Junior Camp of Cortina as:
“BERLUSCONI’S TROPHY” AND MILAN JUNIOR CAMP DAY
Each participants taking part in the Milan Junior
camp, will be given a free ticket to the prestigious “Trofeo Berlusconi”
match, AC Milan vs. Juventus Turin, that usually takes place in the
middle of August as an opener for the Italian football season (the date
for the game is usually available at the end of July ).
Also, at each camp, the AC Milan supervisors will
choose one or two 10 year old boys (1998). They will be able to take
part in the Milan Junior Camp Day, the three days meeting of the best
players in all Milan Junior Camps worldwide, which will take place,
presumably in September 2008, at the Vismara – Milan Sport Center.
Vismara is the sport center where all AC Milan youth teams side train
(the first team and the Primavera (U19) team train at Milanello instead
).
There should be about 200 class’98, 10 years old
boys, who will play each other in friendly games all day long, while
watched attentively by AC Milan Youth side’s talent scouts. Afterwards
they will be taken to the San Siro stadium for a Milan home game and
some of them will be able to meet some first team players after the
game.
Considering that over 800 boys signed up in 2007 at
our MJC Italy camps, there were about 20 10 years old boys (of the
class’97) at the 2007 MJC DAY.
NB. The dates for the “Trofeo Berlusconi” and the MJC
DAY will be announced as soon as known but NOT before the end of July
2008.
