At the Skills Academy, players can expect to touch the ball between 500-1000 times in the one training session. Our aim is to help produce players that are imaginative, creative and confident. “Team systems are important, but they are only as good as the individual players in them. They cannot compensate for poor control or inaccurate passing and shooting” (www.coerver.com)
The Academy will focus on each individual’s skill on the ball in order to create players and beat defenders in 1 v 1 situations. Fast footwork, turns, 1 v 1 moves and combination dribbling will be at the main focus of the program. 11 v 11 games and group tactics will not be covered in this program.
This program will be intense, fast paced and very physically demanding. For those who come each session and work hard, the game of soccer will become easy and fun!
