TEAMS
With great staff and managers.
We’re more than a team.
Player Values
Developing intelligent and creative players with a good decision making capacity is our primary goal. Sporting United Soccer Club selects players in accordance with our soccer philosophy. We believe every player has to have an aptitude for soccer and learning capacity.
Our players are self motivated and inspired to drive their own development. They have the physical capabilities to be an elite athlete. They have to be technically sound in order to meet our game demands.
Facilitating our players development in a nurturing, challenging, technically proficient environment fuels their potential to become independent decision makers. For us, being versatile and having the ability to adapt are as important as creativity.Ultimately, we want players developed to understand the game and to love the game.
Attitude, Beliefs a and reason
Teaching Ideology
In accordance with US Soccer’s curriculum we strive for our learning environment to be reality based & experiential with a holistic approach
We strongly believe in letting the game be the teacher. Our coaches are tasked with creating sessions that follow the curriculum objectives and include lots of decision making scenarios that may occur in games. Our vision is based around individual player development that will then fit into the team dynamics ultimately optimizing player development through the team.
Coaching education is vital in supporting player learning. Through a series of coach development sessions we support our staff in having a clear understanding of the guided discovery techniques and the timing and types of interventions they use either on the training field or on match day.
We encourage our coaches to focus on the process, to be role models, and to use the power of examples. We believe the most experienced and most effective teachers should be coaching in Zone 1. Our coaches have the freedom to structure the practices to ensure the most productive learning environment. Our coaches are required to adhere to Sporting United Soccer Club high standards.
The game is a sum of decision making actions. In order to develop players to make autonomous decisions, our coaches ask questions that consistently challenge the players to think. In training, we replicate game-like situations. We also train in small, tight spaces with overloads and multidirectional objectives. Coaches are expected to lead the players and not just to manage them.
