“Play Hard, Have Fun, Expect to Win”
Sports are far more than diagrams and techniques. Sports and Life itself are similar in that each demands a personal commitment to excellence for success. Success cannot be an occasional or sometimes thing – it is a habit. To climb to greater levels of success requires dedication, perseverance and most important of all – discipline and mental toughness. We believe success breeds success, therefore it is our duty to create a positive approach and environment for the student-athlete.
Our soccer philosophy is very similar to that of life – it is one of building and instilling confidence in our players, regardless of the task. By instilling confidence the sky is the limit to our attainable goals as individuals and as a team. Without that confidence, regardless of the task, our success will be limited. In looking at the game itself, it is the simple skills and techniques that make individuals and ultimately teams successful. Those simple skills are what separate the average players from those that rise above and make a difference.
We believe firmly in the constant practice and execution of the basic fundamentals; passing, ball control, dribbling, shooting, and heading. To be able to perform those skills at a high level allows individuals and teams the opportunity to be competitive and successful. Practices are full of game related situations. Small-sided games that allow players to participate and learn first hand while doing not watching. Playing is the best teaching tool we have.
As for our system of play, we will incorporate a ball possession concept that allows players the opportunity to express themselves and be creative. Flamboyant yet with understanding that offense wins games and defense wins championships.
Lastly, and most importantly is the ability to communicate; be open, honest, and up front with all players. Every team member has a role. In order for our teams to be successful, each player must know and accept their role. We are very open so that each player understands their role, how important that role is to our success, and that the door is always open to discuss that role.
Finally, the important characteristics that our coaches possess are organization, motivation, leadership, an ability to relate with athletes and sound values and beliefs. We are a club that has a strong understanding of what mental and physical demands are placed on today’s athlete. Each characteristic is unique, but together they provide a powerful combination of excellence. Just like our players grow from year to year, we will continue to grow and improve as coaches right along with them.
