TSF Academy believes for our players to play at their potential it is essential that they are fit and undergo a specialized Soccer Conditioning Program in the spring. Every player in our club aged U15 thru U18 team has the option to participate in planned weekly Speed & Agility training under the guidance of our conditioning coach.
College Program
To assist our players with their goal to play college soccer, TSF Academy has established a College Program for U17/18 age groups to help guide players through the process. The college program helps players:
- determine their list of potential colleges
- recommends communication channels and procedures with college coaches
- reviews athletic scholarships
- has players create a college shortlist
- communicates directly with college coaches on the players behalf
- relays information from college coaches to players
Selecting a college is a decision that will affect a player's lifestyle and future. Our goal is to provide information to help players with their decision.
To improve and support the tactical awareness of TSF Academy players we conduct a number of classroom sessions during the Club teams season. The sessions review tactical video tapes on specific soccer themes which enhance the tactical field session being implemented by coaching staff.
