Myths about college soccer ID camps. So do college soccer ID camps work? I get this question all the time, and the answer is yes. You may think it doesn't work because they're taking your money, but yes, of course they're taking your money. These college coaches don't make that much money, and this college camp is a way for them to make money, especially with kids who are younger and may not be ready to play college soccer quite yet. Let alone, this is now an opportunity for some of you as well as other players to go, oh, 'Hey, this is what college soccer coaching is like. Let me go to this camp.' So the camps are not a waste of money. Now ideally, you would like not an automatic email. It'd be better off if you had some personal connection or personal conversation with the coach before you go to the camp. But if you don't have that, that doesn't mean the camp doesn't work. Many coaches, if not the majority of coaches, other than the top 25 or top 10 schools in the country, pretty much use college ID camps, including myself.
