The U12-U15 program focuses on transitioning players to an increased commitment to developing their soccer skills.  There is a continued emphasis on technique enhancement and tactical game understanding as we encourage decision-making abilities on both sides of the ball.  We encourage players’ physical development, competitiveness and commitment during all sessions.

TECHNICAL-Players will continue to enhance their technical skills/ball mastery.  Technical training will focus on speed and accuracy with an emphasis on passing and finishing.  Individual creativity/ability will also be encouraged in combination with learning to make correct tactical choices within game situations.

TACTICAL-Small group and large group tactical concepts will be introduced focusing on the relationship between the 3 blocks/lines of players (defenders, midfields, and forwards). Players will also be introduced to the tactical "System of Play" concept.

PHYSICAL-Strength, endurance, speed and agility are now important components of physical training.

PSYCHO-SOCIAL development focuses on strengthening the team concept and developing leadership skills, attitude and mental toughness.

The U12-U15 program provides opportunities to develop and prepare for high school soccer and beyond.  At this stage of development there is a strong need to prepare our athletes for the demands of higher-level competition and increase their exposure to more advanced techniques and tactics.  The overall goal for the program remains long term player development.
