I want to express my deepest gratitude to Marcus for his vision, elite execution of the camps and sincere passion to enable our darling daughters with an extraordinary soccer experience. The knowledge, skills, friendships, and memories they’ve gained from his camps will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on their soccer journey. I would highly recommend a Marcus camp to any aspiring soccer player who is looking to take their game to the next level.
Phillip Schilt, Sting Dallas BlackParent
The level of organization and attention to detail in the camps are second to none. The level of instruction provided by the coaches in attendance provides the players the highest level of development and opportunity to be trained and seen by coaches from all over the country. Marcus does an excellent job in communicating the plans for the weekend and provides a level of professionalism and programming you cannot find anywhere in the country. My players have absolutely loved their experiences at these camps and have led to their direct recruitment and commitments to play at the next level.
Jon Brezenski, Gretna Elite Academy ECNLCoach
I have attended multiple Soccer College ID Camps organized by Marcus Kelcher. Each camp included training sessions, small-sided games, and 11v11 matches. The camps were all well ORGANIZED with STELLAR coaches that provided a HIGH LEVEL of technical training. These camps were well attended by many college programs throughout the US including a significant number from Division 1 along with other very competitive programs at all levels of collegiate play. His Soccer College ID Camps were a great recruiting tool that allowed me to showcase my talent and gain exposure. I’m incredibly grateful for the role his camps played in my journey to fulfill my dream of being recruited by a Power 5 Division 1 program.

Marcus has reinvented the ID camp experience for both the player and coach! He has created an opportunity for both to actively engage beyond on field instruction as well as an environment for the players to freely showcase their attributes. Additionally, Marcus is consistently educated and equipped to guide both parties as he takes the times to listen. He listens to athletes and their desired experience. He listens to the coaches and their respected needs. This along with his understanding of the college landscape (geography, conferences and level of play) and the financial needs of the athlete, he creates a top-class and enjoyable camp experience. I have personally enjoyed the opportunity to work with Marcus and will continue to attend his camps due to his communication, expertise and fun yet professional camp experience.
Cole Ouren, Baylor UniversityCoach
I have been attending these ID camps for a long time and they have been so beneficial in helping my recruiting process. It put me in an environment where the college coaches could watch me while also allowing me to interact with them. These ID camps were super beneficial because while most ID camps only had a few college coaches, these had a bunch of coaches who watched me play and I got to work with them. I am now committed to playing D1 Soccer and these camps were a huge part of the process.
Molly Teed, Sting Dallas Black ECNLPlayer
My daughter, Molly, has had the opportunity to attend ID camps for the past 2 1/2 years. I can’t say enough about her experience. These ID camps were incredibly organized from start to finish and Molly was given the opportunity to be coached by some of the top college coaches in the country. When the time came for her to begin talking to college coaches during recruiting, many of the phone calls she had were a direct result of the exposure from the ID camps. Not only did they provide her with exposure to the top coaches, but because she had spent time interacting with top-level coaches, she was able to confidently speak during her recruiting phone calls. It is no doubt that Marcus’s ID camps, played a large part in Molly ultimately committing to a top D1 college soccer program.
