Pre-season:
Practice begins Monday, August 14th. Practices run Monday thru Friday and often one day on the weekend. It is mandatory that all players attend with the exception of illness, family emergency or pre-approved absence. The practice schedule are emailed, and we use a team app (smartphone app) that stays up-to-date. Changes to the practice schedule are communicated to the players each day. Team captains create group chats or Facebook pages for their team to reference. Please encourage your child to train throughout the summer.
Coach Aidan will post a suggested training schedule to maximize strength and endurance as well as tactical and technical drills to hone soccer skills. It is expected that every player will be fully prepared for tryouts and committed. Please refer to the website for this season’s scrimmages/game schedule (subject to change).
