“Epic fun”Venue: Banbridge • Child: Eamonn & Joe • Parent: Jean McSweeney
I never saw my boys Eamonn and Joe, laugh and smile so much as they did when they went Samba Soccer. It was a treat to watch them get so much fun out of the football. I can see the difference it made too afterwards when they were playing with the other boys. They had learned a thing or two, I can tell you. When I asked Eamonn what it was like he said “It was epic fun.”
“Brilliant Brazilians”Venue: Waterford • Child: Jimmy • Parent: Julie Ryan
My Jimmy was simply thrilled to be taught about football by real Brazilian footballers. He watched them like a hawk and he kept saying how brilliant they were. It’s always been a dream of his to be a footballer and he really concentrated on learning everything he could from the course. I was completely satisfied by the whole course and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
“Super staff” Venue: Raheny • Child: Linda • Parent: Michael Downey
Our Linda was absolutely delighted with her Samba Soccer camp. Her mum and I were thrilled to see how well she got on. She was a bit nervous at first but the staff, especially the local coach, Grainne, were really encouraging and they helped her to get the most out of the whole experience. Linda is looking forward to next summer’s Samba Soccer camp already.
“It made the summer”Venue: Dalkey • Child: Richard Kumar Parent: Andy Kumar.
Richard was looking forward to his summer holidays so much, and it was hard to come up with something fun for him to do all the time. Then along came Samba Soccer and the summer was made for him. He loved getting the Samba gear and wore it all the time. He even slept in it. I don’t know if next summer can live up to his expectations, but I do know he’ll definitely be going to Samba Soccer.
“Advanced skills”Venue: Naas • Child: Carol • Parent: Patricia Ormskirk
Our Carol had been to camps before, and she is already something of a star on her team, so we weren’t sure that Samba Soccer could teach her anything new. We couldn’t been more wrong. The Brazilian coaches really challenged her to move up to another level and she was thrilled about that. She has learned new skills and got more
