Junior RDP
The Junior Rep Development Program is an extra weekly technical session available to our younger players looking to prepare and transition into our Rep Development Program. The sessions are more technical in nature and are led by coaches who are experienced at working within this developmental matrix.
The JR RDP Program is offered to U5/U6/U7 youth that are looking to develop their soccer skills in a more structured environment and bridge the gap between traditional House League Soccer and next level Rep Training.
Practice sessions are planned so that they involve a Warm-up, a Physical an introduction to the Technique, a progression of the Technique Game Related, and a Scrimmage Game. The sessions will focus on the development of technique in ball control, dribbling, passing, shooting and introduction to defending / attacking skills. Most of the exercises at this stage will focus on the 1v1 and 2v2 model (FUNDAMENTALS).
The Progression of Player Development part of our Jr. RDP is concentrated on:
- Ball Mastery: The Foundation-Touch, Control, Confidence
- 1v1 Moves: Individual Skill to keep possession, Dribbling, change of direction, Feints, Stops and starts
