SPI and Chantilly Youth Association
SPI To Train 12 CYA Legacy Teams-Spring 2008

A partnership based on development

Soccer Performance International is proud to begin its’ 8th year with CYA soccer! The partnership between the two organizations is one based on education of both players and coaches. This successful partnership has impacted over 4,000 players and 520 coaches through a training program tailored to meet the specific needs of CYA. Over the past 7 years CYA members have enjoyed and benefited from weekend training sessions on skills development along with practical instruction for parent coaches.

 

Since CYA believes that player development begins with a proper coaches’ education, SPI licensed trainer’s aid in the transition of new coaches and further develop the seasoned coach. SPI offers a well rounded program consisting of classroom training on the "Fundamentals of Coaching", skills training sessions, and team visits. SPI is also proud to have played a role in the certification of over 300 CYA coaches through the Virginia Youth Soccer Association (VYSA).

In the spring 2008 and as part of a growing CYA Legacy Program, SPI will begin training the six new U-9 travel teams "graduating" from the clubs recreational program along side of the six U10 teams. Many of these players have been trained by SPI since they were U-5 and participated in the HUGS program! These teams will be playing in all three of the local area leagues (WAGS, NCSL and ODSL). The Legacy Program will have SPI professionally licensed trainers working closely with CYA coaches in all facets of team and player development.

The principal of educating players and coaches will continue to be the focus of a successful relationship between both organizations.

Program Details
 
 
Saturday 2:30-3:30PM U8 Future Star Program Demo
  • This program has been especially designed for players U8 through U13 and has skill and conceptual development as the primary focus. Program utilizes a high-level curriculum which challenges our young players both physically and mentally.   SPI trainers, experts in the field of youth development, use modern teaching techniques to prepare players for the upcoming season. Along with ball handling skills players are introduced to basic and fun plyometric, conditioning exercises as part of each session. These exercises are designed to improve balance and coordination.  
Saturday 4-6PM U10 Circuit Training
  • The biggest challenge to current coaches is to keep our training sessions educational, dynamic and fun. The circuit training method has all these characteristics and is utilized by some of the most sophisticated clubs around the world. This model has a number of advantages: 
    • Variety- Provides variations on skills related exercises
    • Touches- Players have a ball at their feet entire session, maximizing ball contacts
    • Focus- Exercises are kept to 15 minutes which facilitates keeping players focused
    • Repetitions- Working on the same skill set in a different station allows for maximum learning
