2024 Academy Registration is Open (Update)DELTA ACADEMY
Our Academy is open to all players ages 3-12. Athletes will need to bring soccer shorts, socks, shin guards and cleats to each session. Please also come with enough water/liquids to stay cool and hydrated during early morning sessions.
TEACHINGS & PHILOSOPHIES
Academy is developed for our younger players and players who are new to soccer or would like to improve their skills. Our program focuses on the fundamentals of the game and is mostly skills & drills based. There are no actual teams or games, but the players are grouped together age-appropriately, and they do scrimmage against each other. This helps the players get used to the game without some of the stressors that sometimes deter the younger players.
Here are just a few core fundamentals that the players will learn over the sessions:
How to control the ball using learned skills.
How to Juggle a soccer ball, age appropriate.
How to Dribble with the inside of the foot using both their left and right.
How to Dribble with the laces of the foot using both their left and right.
How to Pass with the inside of the foot using both their left and right, age appropriate.
How to take a Placement Shot with the inside of the foot using both their left and right.
How to take a Power Shot with the laces of the foot using both their left and right.
Within each of these core fundamentals each coach has broken the skills down piece by piece to properly teach the players how to perform each skill the correct way.
Our academy is taught by experienced coaches and player assistants, who employ exciting techniques to help each player get touches on the ball.
