Beware the fake positive reviews
September 18, 2018

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.

This guy will STEAL YOUR MONEY!
September 7, 2018

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.

BE AWARE and STAY AWAY:

Doesn't pay coaches he hires
July 8, 2017

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
