Our 1-Day Programs are developed to provide basic technical and physical soccer skills while also enhancing the players love for the game of soccer for players between the ages of 2 and 12 years old. Unlike a traditional Recreational League/Program, Junior Academy is just 1 hour, once a week for 5 weeks.
The Junior Academy Program is designed for first time players or players that want to gain more skills and confidence before advancing into a Recreational Soccer Program.
Additional Program details:
- Training shirt provided for NEW players
- All Cycles are Coed
- All sessions are led by qualified and certified Coaches
While this is not a traditional recreational soccer program with full games every week, our program does provide game like events so we would recommend the following equipment for each player...
- Cleats or turf shoes
- Shin guards (optional, but recommended)
- Size appropriate ball
- Water bottle
