The philosophy behind the SoccerPlus Connecticut Elementary Academy is to provide an environment to young players that encourages and promotes creativity, discovery, and inventiveness. The Elementary Academy will allow for young players to be trained by SoccerPlus Staff Coaches prior to playing in a small-sided environment. During the training, players will become more competent and confident in their ability to attack, win 50/50 balls, and score goals. SoccerPlus endorses a small player-to-coach ratio to ensure that all players are receiving individualized attention as well as opportunities to receive maximum levels of touches on the ball during training. After a brief training period at the beginning of training, small-sided games will take place that will allow players to apply their learned skills. It also affords players the opportunity to be creative and to try skills in a risk-free environment.
