2010 PLAYER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

The Tri Valley Soccer Club has established a series of programs and educational opportunities that will effectively position the Club in a classification not shared by any other club in Northern California.

The primary function of these programs is to capture and provide the elite players of the East Bay with a comprehensive soccer learning experience.

All of the exercises performed will be created around the movement patterns experienced during a game by an outfield player, whether with or without the soccer ball. A number of the exercises will be performed with an active soccer ball.
