All too often children never learn the most basic skills and are not equipped to advance to the next level. This is especially true with soccer. The Academy Program is a soccer school specifically designed to develop these basic technical skills needed to compete at a higher level of soccer. Training will be conducted by qualified, professional coaches one night each week. This is in addition to the Recreation season and will not conflict with regular season games.  Occasional scrimmages and opportunity to enter tournaments is also offered. Player evaluations are also completed by the coaches for each Academy player as they finish the curriculum. These evaluations will be handed out on the last day of the program, and can be a very useful in a player’s development. Read below for more information, or for questions please contact Chad Crandell - Academy Director
