Spring Individual Player Development

VAFC soccer coach with players

soccer academy training

Divisional 2011 – 2013

The purpose of the Development player program is to maximize the individual’s soccer potential, while recognizing that the players come from different soccer backgrounds and will vary in technique and ability. Coaches will evaluate the players consistently from the first session and challenge players by grouping them with players of similar abilities. Technique training of all the core soccer skills is emphasized. All VAFC programs use creative and challenging games to improve ball control, passing, dribbling, defending and shooting.

The 10 week Spring Development program consists of :

(1) A 90 minute player development session within their own skill set run by VAFC Professional staff coaches.
(2) Every session will consist of ball work and developing individual skills.
(3) Practice sessions will occur on assigned turf fields.
(4) All Volunteer coaches practices and games over seen by VAFC Boys Head Coach ( Steve Hood) and Girls Head Coach ( Lauren King).
