The athletic focus for the K-5 students is to get students out on the field (or court) and build up a technical arsenal that will take their game to the next level. Through their participation in these after school sessions, players will be identified for even more advanced opportunities. These sessions will be FUN, but they will be wrapped in deliberate instruction with a high level of accountability. The players might not even realize the concepts they are learning, but trust us --> they will be getting much better than the player who is only training with their home team.
The athletic focus for the 6-8 grade students is to provide daily soccer training. This training center model will focus on the four pillars of soccer: physical, mental, technical and tactical. Through professional daily coaching players from clubs around the state will be able to replace costly private training sessions with a consistent, thoughtful development plan. In order to get ahead in the game, players *MUST* be doing additional, thoughtful training. We will carry forward the idea of keeping it fun, while ratcheting up the level.
