MISSION STATEMENT:

To encourage further individual, and team soccer development in those children who desire more than what the current intramural program (JAA) offers via enhanced weekly training sessions, league and tournament play.

ELIGILBILITY:

- This program is open to all children within their respective age groups from 1st thru 3rd grade
- Must be a resident within the Jericho School District

NATURE OF PROGRAM:

This program will require a 1 year commitment by both child and parents. Enhanced soccer training will focus on fundamental soccer skills, and age appropriate endurance training. The child must be willing to devote his/her time, and be willing to participate in a more competitive soccer environment. A more “competitive” environment will be introduced over time.

A supervisor of the Developmental Program will be responsible for providing all necessary information regarding tournaments, league play, and communications within the JSC/JAA and with soccer trainers. In addition, the supervisor will also forward educational soccer information to all coaches who will share with team members. The supervisor will be responsible to the directors of the JSC/JAA intramural program.

Following is a brief description of the program:

- Available for all children within grades (1st, 2nd, 3rd) boys and girls
- Teams will be formed equally based upon player “ratings” for grades 1st and 2nd
- 3rd grade teams will be formed based upon trainer’s ratings during the month of June of the prior spring (ending 2nd grade). Team formation will be based upon player ratings, not equally divided.
- Weekly, 90 minute training session with professional soccer trainer.
- 1st grade teams will participate in fall and spring tournaments.
- 2nd grade teams will participate in fall and spring tournaments, fall and/or spring league play (SSI), and winter leagues.
- 3rd grade teams will participate within the Syosset Pre Travel U9 league as well as local tournaments and winter leagues.
- Additional costs per player will apply

This program can only work with the participation of parents to help administer team functions and coach. If you are interested in serving as a parent administrator/coach, please let us know.
