WHAT TO EXPECT?
This camp, hosted by RULLA Soccer Academy, will be led by top-quality coaches who truly understand what it takes to reach the next level. Whether you're a recreational, travel, club, or MLS Next player, you'll leave this camp with the tools and mindset needed to elevate your game.
The camp is structured around the proven training model used at RULLA Soccer Academy. Leading the camp will be Coach Rashawn, founder of RULLA Soccer Academy and a former professional player, alongside Chantelle Swaby, a current professional player with Leicester City in the Women's Super League.
Both Rashawn and Chantelle grew up playing soccer in Connecticut—just regular kids with big dreams. Through hard work, discipline, and a deep love for the game, they climbed the ranks from local and club soccer to the professional stage. Together, they bring over nine years of combined pro experience, spanning the World Cup, MLS, and the Women's Super League. They know exactly what it takes to rise through each level of the game, because they’ve lived it. That’s why The Next Step Project isn’t just a name—it’s a mission. This camp is designed to help players take that crucial next step, whether you're dreaming of making a travel team or eyeing a future in the pros.

Rashawn Dally
Founder of RULLA Soccer Academy
I’m incredibly excited for this camp! The structure closely mirrors what we use at RULLA Soccer Academy, which makes it a perfect fit. What makes our program so powerful is that it empowers players to take ownership of their growth. This camp will give even more kids the tools and motivation to take that next step in their development.
Chantelle Swaby
Current Professional player
“I’m really looking forward to this camp because it gives players something I wish I had more of growing up—a space that’s focused on real development, both on and off the field. Coming from Connecticut and now playing professionally, I know how important it is to have people who can guide you through the steps. This camp isn’t just about learning new skills—it’s about understanding what it takes to keep progressing and chasing bigger goals. I’m proud to be part of something that’s helping the next generation go after their dreams with purpose.”
