Level 3


Program Overview
Within our Select level, players will learn through; fast paced, game related activities, with a focus on individual technical development and small group partnerships.
Players are encouraged to problem solve using their own creative thoughts, while being comfortable in possession of the ball.
As players progress through each age level, they will develop a general understanding of their positional role and function within the team during the FOUR key moments of the game:
- In Possession
- Attack to Defense Transition / Moment the Ball is Lost
- Out of Possession
- Defense to Attack Transition / Moment the Ball is Won
