EPYSA Season Training Plans

We are providing a more refined coaching curriculum to address the ages from U6 to U16 for 2015-2016. We feel it is important to develop technical objectives for these ages as well as incorporating group and team tactics at the older ages. We recognize that development varies from child to child and feel it is important at the younger ages to realize the potential in every child and provide appropriate instruction.
