WGSC Academy Overview

Ages 4 & 5 . . 

Fun skill games and coordination activities are introduced to these young players to develop basic motor skills and comfort of moving and running with the ball at their feet.   

 

Ages 6 & 7 . . 

Emphasis on more challenging ball manipulation.  The ability to perform stop and go movements and changes of direction is developed through 1v1 play.  Fun skill games are still a big part of the training.  Decision-making activities are introduced to stimulate cognitive development.

 

Ages 8 & 9 . . 

Emphasis on transforming technical ability into skillful play . . playing under pressure!  Developing dribbling and passing/receiving skills through 1v1 and 2v1 play to improve instinctive qualities and first touch. 

 

Ages 10-12 . . 

Technical and tactical abilities are challenged through small group play (1v1, 2v1, and 2v2 activities) to develop speed of play.  Playing under pressure and developing good decision-making ability is paramount.
