We are dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in soccer and beyond, instilling values of sportsmanship, perseverance, and passion that extend far beyond the final whistle.

Sport is the greatest conduit for teaching young people the necessary skills that foster success in life.  Sport teaches so many valuable lessons that are not just important on a field, rather valuable lessons that translate into skills and traits that will last a lifetime.  Team sports, especially soccer, teach players to work as a part of a larger unit for a greater purpose.  Soccer, more than any other team sport, asks players to work together to achieve more and teaches both the importance of individual development and the selflessness it takes to be a part of something greater than any one person.

So lets ask the real questions: How do we teach people to deal with loss and persevere? How do we learn from our losses so that in the future, when faced with the same situation, we become victorious?  How do we gracefully lose, yet never concede defeat?  How do we recognize that losing is an unavoidable byproduct of risk, but a risk that can be managed and controlled?  As coaches, we feel that it is important to encourage players to turn weaknesses into strengths, work together to achieve more, and use losses as motivation for future successes.  The lessons learned on the field translate into life lessons that help ensure their development as successful adults.

From simply a soccer standpoint, skill development and an endless reinforcement of solid fundamentals is undoubtedly key to player development.  Concentration on skill development, sound fundamentals and hard work are a recipe for success.  Truth be told, players who work hard in practice to develop sound skills, work hard in the game from kickoff to the final whistle, and play smart and physical ball, are players who will be adults who employ the same work ethic in their jobs, communities, and families.

Player development, especially when discussing younger players, should be focused on developing a player that can play any position.  When sound fundamentals are developed, players become more versatile on the field, allowing them to become multi-dimensional and therefore more valuable to the team.  While coaches should put players in positions that highlight their strengths and neutralize their weaknesses, it is important to encourage players to strengthen their weaknesses in training and creating opportunities where players can play other positions in game situations.  

When we look at our players, we see a group full of future business leaders, community members, doctors, lawyers and the men and women that they will become.  Through sport we are helping equip them with the skills they need in order to be successful in life.
