Pathway for Sporting Development

U8, U9, U10 AND U11 ELEMENTARY DEVELOPMENT
In Elementary the focus is on maximizing participation in sports. Basic skills development, preparing for competition, and encouraging a love for sport are the core objectives. Participants should all be playing the same amount of time during training sessions and competitions.
U12 DEVELOPMENTAL
The focus at this level is building on fundamental skills, understanding the rules of each game, and an introduction to tactical play. Maximum participation by athletes is emphasized not only for their overall growth and welfare, but the continued development of the program. Developmental levels are the foundations for the higher, competitive levels. As such, students in the developmental level receive exposure to competition and basic tactics.
U14 PREPARING FOR COMPETITION
At this level, we continue to develop and refine fundamental skills, but with the expectation of the application and transfer of these skills into all training sessions and competitions. Additionally, students are expected to implement the application of these skills into training sessions and competitions. Participation remains an objective, but additional emphasis is placed on competition and more advanced tactics.
U16 & U19 VARSITY – COMPETITIVE
This level represents the pinnacle of the ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ American pyramid approach to sport, with greater emphasis on being competitive. For championship tournaments, we aim to field our most competitive team. Players earn their game time throughout the season based on their performance in matches and training. We strive to develop complex tactics of the sport and we emphasize commitment, discipline, and dedication to a team.
