Expectations
In our Junior Academy program, we hold a set of expectations designed to foster a positive and enriching experience for every young player. First and foremost, our emphasis is on learning and skill development, encouraging each child to explore and enhance their soccer abilities in a supportive environment.
We prioritize the element of fun, aiming to instill a love for the game that will stay with them throughout their journey. Alongside this, we expect participants to pay attention during training sessions, fostering a focused and engaged mindset. Respecting others, both teammates and coaches, is paramount, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and sportsmanship.
We also encourage a strong work ethic, teaching kids the value of dedication and effort in their pursuits. Punctuality is essential, instilling the importance of showing up on time to foster a sense of responsibility and commitment.
Through these expectations, we aim to cultivate not just soccer skills but also fundamental life values that will endure beyond the soccer field.
