We focus on soccer specific agility drills that covers movements to improve running form, foot speed, and coordination of movements in 3 different planes of movement. Full sprints runs will be incorporated in this section.
Will focus on mobility and dynamic stretching to lengthen muscles and prepare joints to move with power. Please note static stretches are not indicated prior to sport activity as it decreases the excitability of muscles.
This Power and Speed section will focus on plyometric (bodyweight jumping activities) and power style exercise that will improve explosive strength and speed in each youth athlete. Plyometric training is a safe and effective method of strengthening youth athletes to improve performance by using the stretch and shortening cycle of tendons. Foot touches are monitored in order to prevent overtraining youth athletes with open grow plates during the course of the training sessions.
This section we will focus on balance. Several studies suggest that inadequate balance places female soccer players at risk of knee injuries.
We will focus on trunk and lower extremity strength.
