Academy soccer at its core is built on the joy that comes from the game. It is made to be enjoyable and fun. Players are encouraged to work hard, play fairly, enjoy the process of achieving individual ball mastery, practice with imagination and creativity without fear. They also need to learn to cooperate with teammates in practice and game scenarios whilst respecting opponents and officials.

Each level gradually increases the emphasis of these elements. Our youngest academy groups are building skills through fun games that focus on a new concept each week. Our older groups are building toward developing individually while working as a team in a more game like and tactical focused training.

Players should be competitive but understand that development is placed above winning during the academy stages. Our staff works to ensure players don’t fear failure, but instead use it as a platform to build up players into strong, confident players and people.
