Junior Academy

​

The Junior Academy is a new CUSA grassroots program for players in age groups U-7 through U-9 (ok for ages 6-9). The academy is ideal for players who thrive in a fun but structured skills-based environment.  Whether they are new to the game or have played soccer, our highly qualified trainer will teach the technical and tactical side of the game.

​

Junior Academy will include ten sessions led by our CUSA staff, CUSA travel coaches, and guest appearances from former CUSA club, college and professional players.  Players will be challenged through a dynamic age appropriate curriculum.  Training sessions focus on ball skills, development of proper soccer specific movement patterns, and small sided games.  This approach allows each player to have a ball at their feet, to maximize the touches on the ball and increase the player’s dynamic and technical play.

​

Training Sessions

​

The group training sessions follow a variety of training methodology.  Each session will utilize a Play, Practice, Play model.  Additionally, players will participate in station rotation to improve their overall technical ability.  Each player is expected to have cleats, shin guards, and a size 3 soccer ball. 

​

Sessions will take place during evenings during the week and/or Saturday mornings. Sessions will start mid-March and will end in mid-May. Sessions will take place at CUSA fields in Elizabeth City. 

​

Price for the sessions will be $125 and will also receive two club training tee-shirts
