EPT
August 4th (a Wednesday) through the 8th (a Sunday) is the new date for our inaugural gosucamp. We figure this is the best time since it is post game release and should be at a time when coaching at this level is most beneficial but also the server is more stable than the beta ever was. Again should blizzard decide to torment us we will refund and accommodate as best as possible. Everyone has been really great through this. Thanks for your continued support!
GOSUCAMP - 250$ to attend
This camp is designed to give individuals the "progamer house" experience. Full immersion training with some of the best RTS gamers in the United States for a long weekend with the end goal of completely revamping, boosting and refining the skills, understanding and overall play level of those that attend. There simply is no replacement for training in person with others that are completely dedicated to giving you the most educational and fun experience possible. GosuCoaching.com is proud to present GosuCamp, a new StarCraft 2 training program that is being offered by four of our coaches, Bryce "Machine" Bates, Kelby "iNkA" Williams, Geoff "iNcontroL" Robinson, and Brent "PsyonicReaver" Schultz in the lovely town of Queen Creek, Arizona.
What can you expect from GosuCamp?
GosuCamp is a 3 day training experience with the best American StarCraft 2 players. You will experience what it is like to live in a ProGamer house and learn all the tips and tricks that enable these players to stay on top. Each day will be 9 hours of lectures, training, and personal one on one time with coaches. This will be a great experience to give you a glimpse into the exciting world of ProGaming.
When is Gosucamp?
The Camp will begin Thursday, June 10th and end Sunday June 13th. Trainees are requested to arrive on Wednesday, June 9th to ensure ample time to recover from travel. Trainees will leave Sunday, June 13th. During your stay at GosuCamp, we will be filming the process so future prospective trainees can know what they are getting into but also so current camp goers can relive the experience. You will be asked to participate in Video Blogs and Interviews. There will also be a cash tournament held on Saturday that will be broadcasted live from the house to an internet stream for all the world to see how the extensive training paid off.
The first day of training, the coaches will go over with each individual the personal goals they want to accomplish the next three days. Better Macro? Micro? Multi-tasking? All of the above? The coaches will work with each person to help them overcome their problems through the course of the morning. Lectures will be given on the basics of the game and how to best utilize your time for this bootcamp. After lunch a review session will be done to determine if the trainee still needs additional advice or if he's ready to move on to another set of goals. Determining efficient build orders? How to have the right army composition? Understanding the purpose of scouting? The coaches will be on hand to help you. Close to the end of the day, there will be a fun inter-Trainee scrim. As a trainee progresses, he may choose how fast or how slow he wants to work on each goal but the coaches DO expect results, they will be watching each Trainee Scrim game closely.
The second day will follow the same review/goal setting. Trainees will scrim vs Coaches at the end of the day.
The third day there will be only a short class session in the morning to help players prepare for the cash tournament.

I'm interested, how do I sign up?
Currently we are only accepting 8 Trainees for the first GosuCamp. Each application will be reviewed by the Coaches. You will get an email if you are declined or accepted into the program. If you are declined, don't worry, there will be more Camps in the future for you to participate in. If you are accepted, please ensure your schedule will be clear for the current dates we have selected for GosuCamp to take place on. Communication will continue to find out more about you and if you have allergies/conditions/special requirements, so please keep in contact with us! You must provide your own transportation to Arizona. If you are driving, directions will be given. If you are flying, please let us know your flight arrival and flight number, someone will pick you up at the airport.
Essential Requirements to be considered for Acceptance
A Beta Key. (US is required, other servers are optional to have.)

Please email incontrol@gosucoaching.com with a short explanation of who you are, where you are from and why you would benefit most from this program. Please include as much about you as possible.
There obviously will be some questions like pricing, housing arrangements, entertainment etc etc.. but those are left for those that are serious enough to email and inquire. The idea is that we create a fairly regular place that people can travel to where they can receive the kind of training typically reserved for those lucky enough to train in a progamer house or attend high level competitive lans on a regular basis.
In the end, this camp is designed to offer a service to those dedicated to this game and to those that are simply in love with this game. We at gosucoaching.com are really excited. We get to combine our business venture with something that we look forward to each year, competitive lans and training!
