A Message From Coach Burns "Over 60% of our commuter campers are repeat customers. Why? Because this camp is packed with value. As a sign of our appreciation for your loyalty, we have only raised our registration fee for the 2010 commuter camp by $5. Thanks for allowing us to fuel your son's passion for the game. We look forward to another great week of commuter camp, especially during this World Cup year!"

• Staff
  Coach Burns personally runs this camp and is on the fields every day.  His staff consists of current and former players from the University of Michigan, college and high school coaches, and other proven coaches who all share his same passion for the game. Our staff is always extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable.  Additionally, the low camper to coach ratio, last year was 11 to 1, makes for a great learning environment that is well supervised at all times.  The camp curriculum is designed to challenge each camper and to allow him to expand the way he thinks about the game. Coach Burns' assistant camp director is Reid Friedrichs.  Coach Friedrichs has served in this capacity for the last 12 years and handles the daily on-field organization of the camp.
