This auction is for one week of the DC Stoddert Soccer Girls' Academy Summer Training.

The Girls' Academy is tailored to developing young female athletes, and provides a wonderful balance between success and challenge with the aim of creating skillful, insightful, and confident players. The Girls' Academy Summer Program is geared towards players who want to improve their skills or take them to the next level; players who feel that they are behind; and players who want to keep their edge.

The program is led by Karen Kelser, the Girls Technical Director for DC Stoddert Soccer. She has a BS in Exercise Science, and holds a current U.S. Soccer Federation National A level Coaching License, USSF National Youth License, KNVB Dutch Youth Coaching Diploma, and the NSCAA Advanced National Coaching License. Karen was the DCSSL Coach of the Year for 2006, and her players have won many awards.
