Holiday Soccer Camps in San Antonio
Five camps between Thanksgiving and the first week of January. Every one at Dr. John Folks Middle School.
November 6, 2026
The stretch between Thanksgiving and the start of the spring season is the longest gap in the youth soccer calendar. League play stops, training stops, and six or seven weeks later players come back having lost touch on the ball. Holiday camps exist to shorten that gap — not to replace the break, but to put a few mornings of real work inside it.
Premier Futbol Academy runs five between November 23 and January 7. All five are at Dr. John Folks Middle School, 9855 Swayback Ranch, San Antonio, TX 78254, and all five are open to players from any club, not only PFA families.

If they just want to keep playing
The Thanksgiving and Winter Break camps are the general-purpose ones. They run morning and evening sessions so a camp fits around family plans rather than replacing them, and both offer a discount for taking the whole thing.
If they are a keeper or a forward
The Winter Break Elite camps in late December are position-specific, for goalkeepers and strikers. Those are the two positions that get the least dedicated coaching during a normal season, because training time goes to the team shape everyone else needs. A camp is where that gets fixed.
If they are a girl who wants a girls-only environment
Two of the five are all-girls camps in the “With Purpose” series, one at Thanksgiving and one in December. Same coaching, same standard, different room.
If they are preparing for spring tryouts
The Pre-Season High Performance Camp in January is the serious one: four straight evenings, older players only, and it lands immediately before spring season training starts. It is the highest priced of the five because it is the most concentrated.
Checking the Age Group Before You Register
Every camp above lists birth years rather than ages, because that is how US youth soccer sorts players. The registration form enforces it with a dropdown containing only the accepted years, so a player outside the range cannot be signed up even by accident. If you are not sure which group your player falls into, the birth year chart works it out in one line, and the camps page carries the same table.
What to Bring
Cleats, shin guards, a ball and a full water bottle. Shirt size is collected at registration, so camp shirts are sized before the first session. Camps run outdoors in San Antonio in late November and December, which can mean 70 degrees or 40 degrees; layers are worth having in the car either way.
