Otis, Massachusetts (PRWEB) February 14, 2013

U.S. Womens National Team Midfielder and three-time Olympic gold medalist Heather OReilly today announced her affiliation with the Berkshire Soccer Academy for Girls in Otis, Massachusetts where she will be a guest coach this coming summer. Camp Directors Eric and Liza Wittenberg confirmed the announcement. We are delighted that Heather OReilly, one of the top female players in the world, will be visiting and enriching our program. The Berkshire Soccer Academy is a unique overnight soccer camp for girls which infuses balance and fun into a world-class soccer camp experience. We strive to provide a fun experience where every girl can elevate her game. We feel that Heathers decision to affiliate with us and to join us at our soccer camp for girls validates our approach.

I am really excited to be joining Berkshire Soccer Academys team, said OReilly. The Academys unique approach, which offers great instruction by professional coaches and a fun variety of other activities, seems to me to create an important balance for the 9 to 15 year old girls that the Academy primarily serves. I look forward to spending time there and contributing to the program both on and off the pitch.

Liza, who will oversee the training at Berkshires girls soccer camp added, Heather has a degree in education and runs her own soccer clinics. We are confident that her involvement will enhance the quality of the instruction we offer.

Berkshire Soccer Academys four 2013 sessions are set for June 28 July 2, July 7 18, July 20 25 and July 28 Aug. 2. The date for Heather OReillys appearance has not been set, as it depends on her summer schedule as a member of the Boston Breakers of in the new National Womens Soccer League (NWSL).

About the Berkshire Soccer Academy For Girls:

The Berkshire Soccer Academy for Girls is located in East Otis, Massachusetts. Girls at BSA receive elite training at top-quality facilities from experienced coaches.

Athletes live in newly-renovated cabins that they share with cabin counselors who are specifically selected and trained to supervision and promote friendships among athletes.
