Futures Academy Program
Get ready to level up to competitive soccer!
The bridge between Recreational and Competitive soccer
The Ignite Academy Program serves as a bridge between recreational and competitive soccer. It facilitates a smooth transition for players, instilling a passion for sports—specifically soccer—from an early age. Our Academy Program caters to boys and girls aged 8 to 10 who seek a more competitive environment.
Confidence Phase (U9 to U10): During this phase, we focus on building love, confidence, and individual expression with the ball. Key objectives include:
- Developing proper technique in dribbling, shooting, passing, and receiving the ball.
- Nurturing individual creativity to take players on in 1v1 situations.
- Cultivating confidence, ball mastery, and a genuine love for the game.
