JIYSC’s Junior Academy Program is designed to support and guide players who wish to make the transition from recreational to competitive soccer. Our emphasis is player-centric with development the number one priority. We focus on the technical, tactical, physical, and psychological development of individual players on a pathway towards maximizing their full potential.
The most important aspect of JIYSC’s Junior Academy Program is training. Based on the US Soccer Curriculum, technical and tactical training is provided and delivered age appropriately and will differ based on age. Our mission of the Junior Academy program is to create an environment of player development from the most important early ages (7-12). All training and games will focus on learning, creativity, problem solving, and FUN to meet the demands of the individual players of this age. The JIYSC Junior Academy program is directed toward talented and enthusiastic young players and serves as a link between the Recreation program and the competitive Select program. The focus will be on individual development over team success.
