Why Camden, New York?

Welcoming Community and Great Facilities

Camden High School served as one of three home sites during the 2023 NPSL and UPSL season. As the season progressed, the club was impressed by our wonderful upgraded facilities at Camden High School (the turf stadium and a new video scoreboard), the dedication of the boys’ soccer program, commitments from our youth soccer program, and how welcoming the Camden community was to the organization. This relationship reached new levels in 2024 when Syracuse FC announced they would be playing all their 2024 games in Camden. The Camden Boys’ Soccer Boosters runs the concession stand, and ticket booth, helps with game day operations, and receives a donation to the booster program.

Tickets: $10 for adults and $5 for Camden students (available one hour before the game)

Imagine Greater Camden looks forward to welcoming fans from all over to our community. We hope you have a chance to enjoy our small town, eat at our local restaurants, take a walk around Forest Park, discover Freedom Park, visit the library, stroll down Main Street, and support our local businesses. This is a great opportunity for Camden and IGC is appreciative of the chance to showcase our village.
