PLAYER DEVELOPMENT PATHWAY
Ages 4–6 | Foundation Phase
Ages 7–9 | Early Development Phase
Ages 10–12 | Development
Ages 13–14 | Performance Phase
At this early stage, the focus is on fun, creativity, and building a love for the game. Players develop balance, coordination, and agility while learning simple ball mastery, dribbling, and teamwork through engaging activities and games.
Players begin to master core soccer skills such as dribbling, passing, control, and finishing. Training introduces small-sided games that encourage quick decision-making, creativity, and working together as a team. We also start to develop focus, discipline, and confidence with the ball.
At this stage, training sharpens technique under pressure and at higher speeds. Players learn tactical awareness such as positioning, movement, and spacing. Physical training is introduced with agility, speed, and endurance to prepare them for more competitive environments.
Training becomes more advanced, focusing on speed of play, decision-making, and game intelligence. Sessions include technical execution under pressure, tactical development, and structured strength & conditioning. Players are prepared for academy trials, competitive clubs, and scholarship opportunities.
