RECAP: Camp Shutout Returns to the Stevens Point Area

During the month of July, the Stevens Point Area is home to the world’s largest goalkeeper camp, Camp Shutout. The 2025 event took over every inch of the 30 acre Portage County Youth Soccer Complex for its first-ever two-week run. During this year’s event the Steves Point area welcomed 640 campers and 100 staff members from 44 states and four countries. Throughout the two week event, Campers trained on the complex’s six regulation and five smaller soccer fields.

Throughout the week, goalkeepers sharpened their skills in ball handling, extension diving, low diving and angle play, cross management, distribution, and breakaways.

Founder of Camp Shutout Stan Anderson shared his thoughts “There are reasons we choose Stevens Point… The hospitality, the lodging, the grass fields, the local restaurants, the nearby airport and many more things make up Stevens Point, We used to run a small Road Show here (30–50 GKs), and now it’s grown to two weeks, hundreds of hotel rooms, and additional programming between weeks. We, our GKs, and staff are very happy!”

With continued growth already in the works for 2026 and 2027, Camp Shutout’s presence in Stevens Point is only getting bigger and we cannot wait for the coming years.

Camp Shutout is the premier training experience for keepers at every stage, from first-year high school players to incoming college athletes. In the Advanced Sessions, campers quickly refine core techniques and spend more time mastering high-level skills needed for club, high school, collegiate, and even professional play. If they’re serious about goalkeeping, this is the camp to get them there.
