    Give your child the tools to excel on the field with our Speed and Agility Clinics for birth years 2018-2012! Each $25 session is built to improve strength, speed, coordination, and balance, while also teaching proper movement to build injury-resistance relative to each age group’s needs. Players will work through dynamic warm-ups, body-weight strength and core stability exercises, sprint mechanics, and change-of-direction drills—all designed to enhance quickness, balance, and reaction in game situations. By learning how to move efficiently and confidently, players will become faster off the ball, sharper in 1v1 situations, more balanced under pressure, and better able to handle the physical demands of matches. This program goes beyond fitness—it builds a strong athletic foundation that supports long-term success in soccer, helping players reach higher levels of performance while staying safe.
