My Mom Friend Alison sent me this info about a great new Soccer Winter Camp run by Boston College’s Lady Eagles Women’s Soccer Coaches and Players:
We are excited to present a great opportunity for your youth soccer players that are looking to take their game to the next level. We have developed a curriculum for a Junior Eagle Academy winter training program for players ranging in age from 9 to 12 years old. It will run for 8 weeks starting on January 8th to March 11. There are two Sundays that are OFF; January 15th and March 4th. There will be two time blocks of 30 kids each; 12:00-1:00 and 1:15-2:15.
We are also offering the opportunity to go to any 4 sessions in which you can check off the dates on the brochure. We will have specific emphasis on individual footwork and 1 v1 skills, comfort on the ball, improving technique of passing and introduction to higher level passing technique, combination play, and finishing technique. We will also have specific goal-keeping training for those that want specialization in this area. Each session will be an hour long and will be skill work for 40 minutes and the last 20 minutes will be small-sided games involving the topic of the session. The players will be trained by the Boston College Coaches and have the BC women soccer players demonstrating and helping them out.
Eventually we are looking to have try-outs to the Academy but for now we are asking your help to recommend players in your organization or team that you feel could benefit from this type of training. Again, this is not a program for the beginner soccer player but one that has a good foundation of soccer fundamentals and the passion to get higher level training. Our training facility is the state of the art as it will be in the Bubble over Alumni stadium. There are few facilities during the winter in New England where players can train in this type of atmosphere. We are delighted to start our new venture of developing our future Eagles!!!
There will be only 30 players per session and will be done the first year on a first come first serve basis.
