Premier Player Development

OUR MISSION

Our goal for the youth developmental program is to develop each child by helping them reach their fullest potential both on and off the field in a nuturing enviornment.  We strive to teach our players responsibility, confidence, perserverance and commitment resulting in their overall success.  Each player will learn the essential building blocks that will ultimately result in achieving these goals. 

Children will be divided by age and ability. Our younger soccer stars, will work on the fundamental skills of the game, i.e. dribbling, passing, and trapping of the ball. All children will be challenged by learning to use both feet. All of these skills will be implemented during small-sided games, within a fun environment.

The older children will work on the fundamental skills of the game, i.e. dribbling, passing, receiving, heading, and shooting, while developing both feet. They will be introduced to new skills which will improve their technique as a soccer player, and we will work, within small groups, to help develop tactical playing within the game.

WINTER PROGRAM

Our 4-7 year olds will work on 30 minutes of basic foot skills, and 30 minutes of fun small-sided games.

Our 8-11 year old program, is designed for kids playing travel soccer, who already have developed basic foot skills. We will work on improving this player's technical ability using both feet. During small sided games, we will focus on change of direction and movement off the ball.

FUTSAL (Brazilian style)

Our 12+ program, has been designed for the player who wants to take his/her game to the next level. We will work on skill, technique, possession and movement during small-sided games. We will be adapting the Futsal method where the emphasis is on creativity, improvisation and technique, as well as ball control and passing within small spaces.  (Brazilian Futsal is a five-a-side indoor soccer game, played with a smaller weighted ball, on a hard court surface.) 

Our goal is to create teams to participate in Futsal tournaments. (This will not interfere with your player's current travel team schedule)
