FRENCH FOOTBALL PRE-ACADEMY TEAMS

To bring the player towards performance and excellence

a world-class development pathway for every player with unique year-round programs.                Develop your technical, tactical, cognitive and physical skills with the french development methodology.

OVERVIEW

Our Pre-Academy program, puts players and their holistic development at the root and center of our entire approach. We deeply believe in creating a child-centered environment, player devoted and coach-supported environment in which our educators (all professional European and American licensed), can guide the human being behind the player, to its highest potential.

Through diverse sessions, tests, activities, games, and 1&1 interactions, your player over a period of 10 months divided into 3 distinct seasons (Fall, Winter, Spring), will build on character, improve motor skills, learn about both soft and hard skills, teamwork, technique, game insight, and, above all, foster a continued love for the game of soccer.

This is the perfect combination of instruction and competition at this stage of your player's development. He/She can continue to grow, work on specific technical, tactical, physical, and psychological areas while being in a controlled environment.
