GOAAAAAAAL!

With its importation from Europe and Latin America youth soccer has become the fastest growing sport in America today. Not only is the sport an excellent vehicle for developing balance and agility in young athletes, but it is an exceptional source for player cardiovascular work out and alternate sport cross-training.

AYA is proud to offer an outstanding youth soccer program developed specifically for the younger soccer player in mind. When it comes to the introduction of children to sports, there is no better opportunity than youth soccer. Not only is the basic concept of the game extremely easy for young children to master quickly, but the skills needed to participate are easily attainable by the very young player.

Soccer at a beginner level, dove-tails perfectly into a young child’s strong desire to “chase” and “be chased”. Following the soccer ball is the natural progression of that desire. Development of the young player’s skills is then built upon that foundation.

AYA’s soccer program emphasizes the teaching of basic soccer fundamentals and proper soccer technique. This is accomplished through drills and games designed to isolate those skills, presenting them in a fun and entertaining way. As the player progresses, mastering each new game, their skill level is advanced and there development furthered, much of the time without their knowledge.

Our soccer program’s goal is to provide all players with the proper skills needed to advance to the next level of play or the next age division of competition, set in a fun safe environment, where players will find immediate success, thus, strengthening their self-esteem and confidence. Program emphasis is placed on the mastering of basic fundamentals and proper techniques, not on winning. AYA firmly believes that winning is a natural by product of proper player skills development. This is a common thread running throughout the AYA organization and is embedded in each an every sport we offer. There are no short cuts, when it comes to improving a player’s abilities.

The Program

The program will consist of professionally taught practices during the week for players, parents and potential youth coaches. Utilizing “stations” offering different soccer drills and games designed to isolate and teach basic mechanics, the entire league (age division) will practice together. Proper form, mechanics and understanding of the game will be taught not only to the players, but to the parents as well. It is the parent’s responsibility then to practice with their player at home.

On Saturdays, teams will play fun recreational soccer games, allowing the player to apply and showcase what he/she has learned.
