Youth Elite Soccer CampYES Competitive camps are based on a ‘Learning to Train’ approach to soccer coaching and are appropriate for boys and girls ages 7 to 14 years. YES Competitive camps build on fundamental movement skills while educating players in the fi ve pillars of the game of soccer: technical, tactical, physical, psychological and social. Players will participate in a 70:30 training to competition ratio so that they can instantly apply new techniques in game related exercises.

Photography PolicyPhotographs are occasionally taken of participants and are used to promote our City Parks and Recreation Pro-grams. If you prefer that you or your child not be photo-graphed, please notify the photographer.

Inclement Weather PolicyLightning poses a serious risk of injury in our aquatic facilities, including the indoor facilities. Due to the se-riousness of this issue, the following inclement weath-er policy applies for all aquatic facilities: When light-ning occurs, the pools will be closed. If the lightning and inclement weather continues for more than thirty minutes, the pools will remain closed and The Keller Pointe staff will attempt to reopen the pools later in the day. This policy is in effect until one hour prior to the facility’s offi cial closing time.

Aquatic TrainingPlease be advised that The Keller Pointe lifeguards take part in active training during operating hours. In the event that there is a training exercise, the aquatic staff will notify all patrons.
