White Hawks Soccer Development Academy Ages 8 & 9 Not quite ready to enter the world of travel soccer, but still interested in expanding your love and knowledge of the sport? Westonka Community Education and the MWHS White Hawks Soccer Staff have come together to bring you the NEW White Hawks Development Academy! The focus of the Development Academy is on the fundamental building blocks of soccer by teaching the basics of dribbling, passing, receiving, finishing and defending. These skills are taught through a combination of individual training and small sided games. In order to achieve a proper trainer-to-player ratio, the program will be limited to a maximum of 30 players. There are no try-outs for this program - players are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. Academy players will participate in training two days a week. There will be a mix of indoor and outdoor practices. Scrimmages will be sprinkled in throughout the Academy season. ______________________________________________________________________ ACADEMY GOALS • Develop basic techniques of dribbling, passing, receiving, finishing • Develop strong confident players • Prepare for traveling soccer • Develop a love and passion for the game • Develop Excellence in soccer ______________________________________________________________________ Session Dates: Wednesday, August 25 – Saturday, October 9 (no practice September 4) Wednesdays 5:45 - 6:45 pm & Saturdays 9 - 10 am Cost: $99 includes program t-shirt #5356-A21S
