THE PROGRAMS BELOW WILL BE DEPENDENT ON THE COVID-19 SITUATION THIS YEAR. WE WILL MAKE A DETERMINATION ON THESE AS WE MOVE FORWARD AND HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE CURRENT HEALTH SITUATION.
7U Technical Development Program ("TDP")
We believe our 7U players who desire more than our Recreation Development Program are best served by the following offerings:
Participation in our Recreation Development Program in the Fall with their peer group. At this age we believe it is best to put your child in a fun, local environment with their friends. It is critical to develop your child's love of the game and not to put them into a higher stress situation so early - this is consistent with US Soccer guidance also. We still run our Recreation Developmental Program by grade (not birth year) to encourage participation.
An additional 7U TDP practice to supplement our Recreation Program for our 7U players. This is completely optional and a separate fee from our normal Recreation Developmental Program. This may also include festivals against other towns.
Separate optional winter program that is once per week January through March focusing on individual skills and futsal
Separate optional spring program that is once per week May through June including scrimmages or festivals with other towns
