The HSC Academy Program (formerly Small Sided Program) soccer builds on the enthusiasm and training from the HSC Micro program. The kids in the HSC Academy program consists of the U7 (under 7 on August 1, 2010) thru U11 age brackets.
In this program, the number of players on a team increases, the size of the field increases, and the number of players on the field increases each year. The intent of this program is to continue working with smaller field and team sizes so that the players consistently get touches on the ball, build on the soccer basics learned in the Micro Program, and carry on with the enhusiasm for the game.
Your child will transition from a beginning soccer player at the start of the program, to a soccer player who is ready to step into either our Harbor Club (Recreational Full Field Program), or into our more competetive year-round Harbor Premier (Premier / Select) program.
Harbor Soccer Club is beginning its fall academy session the week of August 1, 2011. The younger age sessions begin Tuesday August 2nd the with all U8 player from 5:00- 6:00pm and all U10 players from 6:15 - 7:30pm. On Friday August 5th, all U7 players have academy from 5:00-6:00pm and U9 players from 6:15- 7:30pm. This schedule will continue through the last week September, with the last Tuesday Academy being the week of September 20th. The dates for the U11 Academies have yet to be determined. As with last year, the Academies will be led by John Wedge (USSF “A” license) and Steve Wright (USSF "C" license) along with a group of trained older age Premier players. The Academies should be attended by all teams and players, as this is one of two practices a team will have in the week.
