NEW: THE POSITIONAL ACADEMY
It is well documented that players at the younger age groups should play all positions to help their development. However, as players get older, and strive to play at the higher levels, the "jack-of-all-trades" more often than not find themselves sitting on the bench. As the game continues to develop, Soccer Academy felt the need to design a program that gave players the tools to keep pace with the demands of the modern game.
This camp program is specifically designed to give players a solid understanding of their individual position on a team. Players will select the Forward, Midfield or Defender Academy and spend a week learning the intricacies of the position. Morning sessions will cover the various technical requirements of the positions, while the afternoon training sessions are designed to work on individual and small group tactics.
Players are placed on teams for evening matches to put the entire package together. Players are given the opportunity to see themselves on video as the evening games are taped and used as a teaching tool for future sessions. There will be a Goalkeeping Academy in conjunction with this program, as well.
