ACADEMY SOCCER PLAYERS (AGES 8-12)
Develop Skills and Build a Passion for the Game!
The Academy Curriculum provides a learning and fun-filled training environment by a highly experienced professional coaching staff. The Attack and Tryout Prep Camps are growing fast (hint, hint ...satisfied past FootHolders are telling their friends!) with players attending from all across the Metropolitan Area.
The Academy curriculum is based on teaching the fundamental aspects of the game. The objectives are to teach technical skills, ball mastery (confidence with the ball), problem solving, new relationships, and good sportsmanship. In addition, players will also learn the importance of starting their own "street soccer" games, as they will be expected to set up and organize these games at the beginning of each camp day.
All Academy Campers will receive an age-appropriate Performance Training Component focused on balance, strength, agility, and movement education.
