The main objectives are as follows.

Camp Warm-Up

Establishing and overseeing parent-child programs for the beginner u4/u5 participants
Providing training programs that combine skill development with small sided games for the younger, developing players at the u5-u8 level.
Providing continued age appropriate skill development training, alongside game understanding at the 7v7 and above levels, for the older u10-u19 players
Providing enhanced skill development programs for REC players who genuinely want to improve and increase their knowledge of the game as they move through the REC program or transition to travel team play.
Oversee training programs for volunteer club coaches to help implement and reinforce all of the above objectives

Other programs offered by Smart Soccer, subject to availability, include:

Private and small group training for all levels of player, including elite level players
