          No. 1 Camps has been conducting consecutive camp sessions at Claremont McKenna College for the past three summers and has had a presence in Southern California for more than 25 years. No. 1 Camps were previously held at Chapman College, Westmont College, Loyola Marymount and Long Beach State. The switch to Claremont McKenna College was a decision to enhance the overall camp experience for campers. The campus is an ideal arena to host a soccer camp. Typically, the No. 1 Camps session in the Los Angeles area is a sell-out situation and continues to be so at Claremont McKenna College with upward of 75 campers each week, providing for the possibility of multiple social and soccer contacts.

          In 1966, Joe Machnik, at the age of 23, coached Long Island University(LIU) to the NCAA Championship Game. Machnik soon thereafter became recognized as America's foremost goalkeeping coach, conducting clinics at coaching schools, conventions and soccer camps nationwide. In 1977, Machnik started the No.1 Goalkeeper Camp with some 39 goalkeepers from thirteen states participating in that first one week session. Coaches, John Kowalski, Shep Messing and Roy Messing, Mickey Cohen, Peter Johnson and Danny Gasper joined Machnik in putting the young goalkeepers through their paces.
