INTERNATIONAL SERIES
Coaches From All Over The World
Tonka United’s International Series brings the world’s game to our community each summer, delivering global training standards and authentic development experiences right here in Minnetonka. This year, we proudly welcome Simply Socker of Ireland for a three-camp, vertically aligned pathway that blends European methodology, professional training environments, and Tonka United’s community-first culture—serving players from first touch to elite performance.
July 20–23, 2026 | Hopkins High School
Three Camps. One Pathway. Global Standards.
- FUNdamentals (Ages U7–U12): Build confidence, creativity, and a love for the ball through high-repetition, game-based learning.
- International ID & Tryout Prep (Ages U13–U18): Train like a European academy player with high-tempo sessions, tactical learning, and professional habits.
- Elite Performance (Ages U13–U18): A small-group, high-performance environment for players targeting MLS NEXT, ECNL, College, and Pro-Pathways.
Led by UEFA-licensed Chris O’Kane and Simply Socker’s international staff, this is your opportunity to experience authentic academy training, individualized feedback, and a global perspective—designed to help every Tonka United player maximize their potential.
