In July EduKick offers youth soccer players an exceptional language & culture soccer camp in China unlike any other. The program is a complete Chinese language and culture soccer experience that is designed to maximize the young person's overall experience in China.

The EduKick China program is based the just outside Tianjin City about one hour by car southeast of the historical and cultural center of China, Beijing... where King Wu was the first to declare it the capital city of the People's Republic of China in 1057 BC.
