implementing a
logically progressive training curriculum which moves from one theme to the
next without taking "short-cuts" designed to foster short-term
team victories. The curriculum is designed to take full advantage of the
"optimal learning years" between the ages of 10 and 14 where the
focus is on establishing solid technical and tactical fundamentals. The
program then progresses to developing a greater understanding of how the
game is played and encouraging a commitment to high levels of physical
fitness and athletic expression. |
