MISSION
Soccer DCF develops soccer players on and off the field by focusing on technique, tactics, fitness and psychology in an environment that is fun, challenging, competitive and builds character. The ultimate goals are to create soccer players who excel at the game and take what they learn on the field and apply it to all aspects of their lives.
PHILOSOPHY
"DCF"
Development
The focus at the younger ages is a mastery of the skills of the game. Technique is critical at all ages to get to the next level. Players must ultimately be comfortable with the ball in all situations. All of the training is age appropriate and addresses both individual and team needs. Players are encouraged to be multi-sport athletes especially at the younger ages as research has shown it not only prevents burnout, but significantly aids in the development of many skills creating a well-rounded athlete.
Character
Fundamental to our approach is a focus on developing the whole player. Teaching life skills through sports is at the center of our methodology and includes good sportsmanship, respect, integrity, honesty and pride. We aim to provide players with the tools to succeed in life including confidence, work ethic, motivation, teamwork and leadership.
Fun
Without fun, it's all just hard work. We provide an experience that is enjoyable and creates a lifelong commitment to health and wellness.
