Developing a complete soccer player is quite complex as there are numerous aspects that players must focus on developing at the same time in order to achieve their maximum potential all year long. The main focus of the Jr. Elite Program is to develop an understanding that the race is a marathon and not a sprint. This process involves a bigger understanding of the picture trying to be painted and what should be your primary area of focus at any given time throughout the course of the year. Once their is a full understanding of the goals required to maximize your potential, the best way to cover the ground needed is through Periodization.
Periodization is what sets the Elite Program above all other training methods. Through periodization players will spend various weeks on specific topics which are aligned with their Year-Round Travel Season. These topics will also be revisited continually in order to combine all the aspects into achieving one goal - maximizing a player's potential. Components such as Core Strength, Fitness, Endurance & Speed are staples in this program which ensures maximizing year round growth and long term success.

Focus is to provide an understanding of all the Passing Techniques required to play at the elite level, this requires a year round focus of developing advanced levels of short and long range passing skills which can only be mastered through professional coaching and year round repetition.
Crossing & Finishing : Periodization will allow players of the Elite Program to focus on these aspects during the Spring, Summer & Fall Weeks.
Focus is not only on the Technique of Crossing & Finishing but also the timing of movement and runs towards goal which is equally important as the actual technique being applied to each situation.
Free-Kicks : Learning to bend, curve and manipulate the ball around players is an extremely advanced technique which will be addressed when the players have reached a certain maturity level to accomplish these tasks, as well as, be able to take on the information required to change their technique through adjustments provided through professional coaching.
Focus is to provide specific days where players are allowed to completely focus on improving technique through continual repetition and feedback in a small group or individual setting.
Free Play & Soccer Tennis : These are elements that are encouraged inside and outside of training times, which allow players to try things outside of their normal constrictive training environments. This freedom to try new things with various levels of groups, promotes creativity and exploration which might not be possible or allowed in a typical team environment.
