Skill Centre is a Canada Soccer recommended development model for grassroots players in the U8-U13 age groups.
Within the U8-U10 age groups, various groupings can occur, at the discretion of the coaching staff, which will allow for all facets of development (Tech/Tac/Psycho-social) to flourish.
Player movement between groups/teams is a possibility throughout the season, based on individual player progress and development needs. This process is overseen by club’s technical lead staff coaches, and in consultation with the appointed team head coach and family involved.
Players attending the Skill Centre Training Program will benefit from a vastly experienced and nationally accredited lead coaching staff who provide a variety of training and game experiences. The ASA Skill Centre Training Program staff include:
COLIN MILLER: Technical Director
TBC: U8-10 Boys
JULIE KING: U8-U10 Girls
