Soccer Ball In The Grass Covered By Rain
The Ultimate Soccer Academy is devoted to developing an athlete's knowledge of the game of soccer and to teaching the skills required to play it successfully. At the Ultimate Soccer Academy it is our purpose and goal to create an atmosphere where players will have a chance to learn and to develop the necessary skills associated with soccer, while improving their knowledge of the game. The staff is made up of dedicated and accomplished players and/or coaches with years of experience at the collegiate and high school level. Grouping of participants will depend on age, experience and overall ability. Players are advised to bring plenty of water. Players are REQUIRED to wear shin guards at all sessions. Each player is expected to bring his/her own ball; players will receive a complimentary t-shirt. Closing ceremonies will start at 11:45 a.m. on Thursday.
