Philosophy:

Our Youth Academy Training System is designed to maximize the opportunity for each player to develop and succeed at the appropriate level. To help facilitate individual growth, our coaching staff uses aspects of both pool training and team-building. This enables our coaches the freedom to move players and structure teams from week to week to ensure each player is placed in the right learning environment.  We follow the Play-Practice-Play model put in place by US Soccer.

What does my player need at every session?

• Size 4 soccer ball
• Soccer cleats
• Shin guards
• Water bottle

What is the game format?

• Youth Academy plays 7v7 (6 field players + 1 goalkeeper).
• Players are moved to different positions & everyone will be rotated to goalkeeper.
• Playing time is guaranteed and is kept as even as possible.
• Teams are gender specific.

Can my player join the program if we missed assessments?

If your player misses the scheduled assessments, please contact our Youth Academy Director: Carter Robbins, to find out about the Make-Up Assessment Date or see it's possible to join the program.
