About our curriculum: Learning soccer is a 4 stage developmental process:
(1) Master the ball,
(2) Play together – Team,
(3) Play against an opponent, and
(4) Play within a system – Tactic.
Our curriculum addresses all 4 stages with demonstration/teaching, drills and activities, including small sided games to reinforce the players development experience. Techniques will be practiced individually and in small groups throughout the week : dribbling/shielding, tackles/challenge, passing/shooting, receiving (ground ball, air ball), combination play, heading, goalkeeping. Each day we cover both Technique (What & How) and Tactic (Where, When & Why), spending 60% on the specifics of Attack and Transition and 40% on Defense. We will spend 20% on Skills Training and 80% on Applying those skills in various conditions.
