This is a scam, please beware the positive reviews. If you research the reviewers you can see that for any of them that have more than one review, the reviews are all posted on the same day. Very highly suspect.

If you're interested in pressing charges against *camp owner* and preventing him from doing business in the USA ever again please contact me at karmapolicewaATgmailDOTcom. I also have information that will help with credit card disputes.

Premier Soccer Camps held a soccer camp in Carlsbad, CA during the 2017 Summer called (at that time) Soccer Camp by the Sea (at the Army Navy Academy). After the camp they offered a discounted rate for early registration for the following Summer (2018). I paid the early registration for 2 kids (total of $590, $295/per kid) and was told it was fully refundable for any reason. As the Summer 2018 dates approached, it was discovered the camp was moved to another location (San Diego State), dates were cancelled, and we were unable to attend at the new location and available dates. I requested via email and phone a refund for the early registration fees repeatedly. After many emails and messages, I got an email response by 2 camp administrators (Dennis Lukens and Chris Makin) that a refund would be processed shortly but it never happened. Since then, I again contacted via email and phone several time with no response. I've connected him to so many soccer things it's ridiculous - he is ripping people off all over the US. This guy needs to be stopped. He is criminal. I've filed with the BBB and Federal Trade Commission - we will see if anything comes of it. Seems as though he might be in Ukraine coaching.

Parents, I hope you are reading this review before you have given this CON ARTIST "DENNIS LUKENS" a dime. I signed my child up for the Ultimate Soccer Camp in SanDiego, Ca. Oh, in the beginning he will return your phone calls, your email etc. when he's trying to get your $$ by trying to convince you that this is the best camp ever, but after you've paid in full, no more phone calls, no more emails, and the voice mail service no longer exist. It wasn't until I finally reached out to Dennis after several failed attempts as to why I haven't recieved the medical form for my daughter. Dennis then told me the college ID camp was CANCELLED for the 29 of July. I told him that I did not receive any notification of such cancellation and the camp was just 2 weeks away. He stated that there was not enough kids for the 29th but July 22 will be a great week because there were more then enough kids for the College ID Camp. Well, on July 20th I received an email stating that there we not enough kids for the college ID camp for the 22nd therefore it was cancelled and my child would be placed in the Advanced Academy class "WELL THAT'S NOT WE PAID FOR".
I asked him what if we wanted a refund his exact words were " I dont know how I feel about that". Well Dennis how do you think the parents feel about traveling from the UK, Alaska, Chicago and and other parts of the world to find out that they were SCAMMED? How do you think all the children felt that were excited and probably counting the days # of days
For camp to start that had to leave because there was no real supervision, or organization? HOW DO YOU THINK, the 11 yr old girls felt when you kept commenting how pretty they were as you rubbed their shoulders and asked if you could take their picture (and this was not on the field) and because of this and several other RED FLAGS, 6 girls were pulled out by their parents on the second day? How did you think the 8 yr old boy felt that had to cross a major intersection WITHOUT SUPERVISION anywhere in site! HOW DO YOU THINK the trainer Mabel feels about not getting paid and not having a place to stay for the camp week of July 29th because she did not know that it was cancelled and you have no room and board for her because you said you have no money... yeah right you Jack A$$! This man never planned on having camp for July 29, we found out through the college that he NEVER reserved that week. As of today he has camp July 29th in Cornwall, NY "New York Military Academy ( which he is falsely advertising Mabel (who played in the World Cup in 2015) as being the coach and she knows nothing about it and ask him to take her off. Here is the site as if today ( http://soccercampbytheocean.com/program/)

Camp started with 50 kids and ended with 10 (because parents saw what was going on) until two day campers were asked to stay over nite which brought the number to 12.

In the end, I called Campus Police as well as another parent to report this scam. Dennis had the nerves to literally run across the street as he tried to hide from the parents who wanted to speak with him. STAY AWAY from anything that has DENNIS LUKENS name attached to it! Bottom line, if it looks like a snake, hisses like a snake, then it is a snake and this snake goes by the name of DENNIS LUKENS! Dennis if you are reading this pay close attention KARMA IS A "B" so stop scamming innocent families by falsely advertising camps that you cancels or poorly run. PAY YOUR COACHES AND REFUND FOLKS THEIR MONEY!

Dennis Lukens is not an honest man... I worked as a coach all week about this time last year and he has not paid me... after numerous phone calls, text, and emails. He says, "it's in the mail" which is a lie. He unfortunately IS a fraud... its really too bad because he could have a good product if he had some integrity. If you are a coach who has not gotten paid please go to the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE) https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/dlseWagesAndHours.html
And file a claim... he only owes me $600.00 but since her has not paid in 1 year the penalties are now $6,000. I have been coaching a long time and know to file. For you young college players who only got paid $10 per hour (for a maximum of 8 hours) and stayed the night (unpaid) for a week and then didn't get your pay check at all file a labor dispute. I also plan to call the naval academy personnel who allow him on his campus to let them know he is not paying his employees and going to the camp July 17th and ask for him to pay me in person. If you worked the camp without pay and live in California... please come with me... my email *******@verizon.net

Not honoring refund. If I get it I'll repost.

Very Helpful while planning for local soccer NY camp this summer
