JUNIORS
Our
JUNIORS program is primarily a "training focused" program meant to either be a player's primary soccer experience, or as a supplemental program for players that are members of BCSA or other township based travel teams. Each group will meet twice weekly (once for training and once for games). The games will be scheduled so that girls play Sunday and boys play Saturday in the hopes of eliminating conflicts with those players playing in the SJSL and SJGSL. Each age group adds certain skills and tactics based on our development model at BCSA. Our JUNIORS program is intended to primarily develop the attacking side of the game. Those graduating from this program should be able to attack at a very high game speed with technical precision. Weekly training sessions are 60 minutes in length and game formats vary based on age.
U8 - Train once per week focusing on perfecting skills already attained from the RISING STARS program while being constantly introduced to new moves and skills. Complete ball mastery is always the main focus as with all our BCSA programs. New skills added to our curriculum at this age group include mastery out of the air with feet, thighs and chest; striking the ball with laces; combination play with 2 and 3 players. Weekly games are 4v4 with no GK's.
U9 - Train once per week focusing on playing fast attacking soccer. 1v1 skills continue to be stressed as the number one skill to be perfected at this age while the usage and development of simple player combinations introduced at the U8 level will be expanded upon. Playing 1 and 2 touch soccer while possessing and combining are stressed. Speed of play at this age is a primary focus as it is now time to begin to demonstrate a proficiency with the skills attained thus far in a game-speed environment. Weekly games will be a combination of 4v4 with no GK's and 7v7 with GK's.
U10 - Train once per week focusing on quick decision making in the attack and being able to apply the correct technical tool given the situation. Mental and technical speed are stressed at this level. Our players should now possess a strong toolbox of soccer moves and skills. The application of those skills and the decision making that goes along with it are developed here. Of course, new skills and techniques will be always be added, but quick, lightning fast, instinctual play using already mastered skills should begin take form. Weekly games will be a combination of 5v5 and 7v7 (both with GK's).
