Challenging
Challenging training is the most important element to the REAL W.C. St. Louis philosophy. Every player wants to succeed, and we want everyone we work with to succeed in a big way. All sessions and soccer training goals must be attainable by the player. We have given careful consideration to program content and design to assure that what is taught is age and ability appropriate. This is where our staff excels in training techniques. Our staff is able to modify each element of training to make it challenging yet attainable to all ages and abilities. Each training session will be geared for success.
Exposure
Exposure to high level soccer coaching and demonstration is essential to soccer skill development. Soccer players in order to grow and develop must be constantly exposed to high quality play, instruction, and utmost demonstration. Our staff is carefully chosen based on their ability to demonstrate and instruct in a clear, concise manner to all ages, sexes, and ability levels. To be able to play the game is not enough to be on staff … you must also be able to teach the game at a high level and be passionate about soccer education.
Repetition
The Game is an important element in our program. We consider playing the game to be the best teacher. The use of small-sided soccer combines to produce game like situations and increases exposure to the ball. Not only does it solidify their individual skills, but also it helps them to understand the more intricate aspects of soccer and team play. Our staff constantly monitors and evaluates game play, pointing out areas of negative and positive play as reinforcement teaching. The excitement of playing, combined with the positive reinforcement of techniques, tactics and team play, will lead to an overall enjoyable experience.
