Street Soccer

Why "Street Soccer"?

It is the opinion of our national coaching staff that we are developing players with certain unfavorable trends. They are hoping to develop players who are problem solvers, who can think for themselves, and who are technically creative and competent with the ball. The belief is that our players lead over structured lives, including their soccer experiences. The goal of Street Soccer is to allow players opportunities with the ball without an adult hanging over them. It is on the "street" that the best players in the world are created. Since it is becoming increasingly more dangerous for our kids to go play in the park or on the streets we are creating an artificial environment for this growth to take place.
