Philosophy
ALL training for young players should be done WITH the ball to produce soccer players that have superior touch and technique. Any fitness that is needed occurs from playing and "soccer ball touch" aerobics, drills and games need to be done at full speed. Incorporates the "ball" in all aspects of training, so each player is exposed to hundreds of ball touches at each training session.
