Tri Valley Soccer Club 2012 Future Stars U6 - U8 Program

Program Philosophy:

Our philosophy is to deliver professional, age appropriate instruction to young players with the purpose of developing correct technique, motor skills, encouraging creativity and building confidence on the ball, all while having fun! The development of individual skills at this age level is the key to player success at later competitive stages.

Program Overview:

The Future Stars Program offers U6, U7 and U8 children the opportunity to play soccer in a supportive and rewarding environment. We put an emphasis on skill development and creativity, by providing players with professional soccer training conducted by our highly regarded coaching staff. Through age appropriate exercises and small-sided games, Future Star players learn basic fundamentals and proper technical execution at an early age, while still having fun.

The Future Stars Program provides an optimal learning environment which fosters both player and character development. For those serious about learning the game in a fun and safe environment, Future Stars is the alternative to parent-coached recreational soccer leagues

.
The program meets three times per week, twice for training and once for small-sided (3v3 or 4v4) games using small goals. The small-sided games help players develop at an accelerated rate with more touches on the ball and have more opportunities to make decisions through more involved playing time. Children U8 and younger should not play soccer in an 8v8 format on a large field. Aside from the “pressure” of referee whistles and “fans” shouting from the sidelines, the strength and skill level required for a larger field at this age places too much of a premium on strength and positional organization over individual skill development.

U7- U8 Program Highlights:

• Focus on individual skill development and creativity through ball mastery
• Our priority is the development of talent over winning
• Qualified, professional instruction from USSF ‘A’ licensed coaches
