“At a young age winning is not the most important thing... the important thing is to develop creative and skilled players with good confidence.”
— Arsene Wenger
Objective 1
The first objective of First Touch Soccer in Wichita, Kansas is to provide players a chance to grow outside of their club training and team environments. Personal Training sessions are designed to give the player better ideas with the ball and to grow their overall skill to give them a framework to take back and apply to their training sessions with their team.
Objective 2
The second objective is to provide something outside the norm. While your typical soccer trainings focus on a different topic each day, such as shooting, passing, dribbling, etc., First Touch Soccer provides trainings that will build upon the previous topics but will focus on things that players constantly do in the game that are not coached as much as the others.
Objective 3
The last objective is to provide a good experience in all environments and to create a drive for players to want to train on their own. Each activity will give players activities and ideas of things they can try on their own at home. Often, players rely on the training from practice to grow them to their maximum potential. Our goal is to create an environment for players to go home and want to continue to work on their skills to reach the best potential possible.
