PLAYER DEVELOPMENT PATHWAY & CURRICULUM
f
Kicks Soccer Academy is a member of UNITED SOCCER COACHES
CURRICULUM - We are members of the United Soccer Coaches and we have adopted the "Complete Coaching Curriculum for children age 3-18" as a framework for all the Academy programs. We have developed the Kicks Soccer Academy "Player Development Pathway" in order to teach the foundation of good soccer and to guide players from the first kicks at ages 3-4 up to competitive club soccer at ages 9-10. Each program has a "Skill Development Chart" that takes into account the player's age and stage of development. Whatever his or her skill level and age, your child will finish our program a better player.
SKILL DEVELOPMENT CARD - We have created the "Skill Development Card" for each of the Academy programs in order to share with parents and Schools Administrators the work that our coaches do with the children.
