Alliance Senior Academy Program is focused on teaching basic techniques, with an emphasis on maximum ball touches.
Our goal for each season is to create a positive, challenging, fun and developmental playing environment for the kids. Players in this program participate in training activities and games that are developmentally appropriate and aligned with various best practices communicated by US Soccer and its coaching education program.
We will not reschedule due to weather cancellations. Instead, we have built in several additional game days throughout the Season.
We will not have any rescheduling due to weather cancellations. Instead, we have extended the program from 8 weeks to 9 weeks long and built in a few additional Sunday games.
