Level 5


Program Overview
As our highest level of programming, the Elite Plus package is designed for high school aged (U16 to U19) teams.
On field training is centered around challenging game situations, with the objective of increasing a players tactical speed (decision making).
Players will continue to focus on the key learning outcomes outlined within the Principles of Play at this age level, and our coaching staff will introduce Leadership & Game Management in a more in-depth fashion.
In addition to learning the most advanced techniques and tactical concepts, this specific package is also to prepare players for collegiate soccer by participating in the highest levels of league play and attending showcase tournaments and player I.D events.
