The Juventus Academy NY afterschool program provides an opportunity for young players to develop technical, physical, and motor skills. There are three age-driven program groups.
The program
Games and drills are catered around the age group within the program. For example, the activities for the youngest age group encourage recognition of numbers and colors, problem-solving, agility, balance, and coordination through activities including, but not limited to: Simon Says, Tic Tac Toe, and Bend it like Beckham. MLS Shootout, Build the Town/Wrecking Ball, Soccer Bowling, and Follow the Leader.
There will be shared targeted development among all three programs, including the development of skills with a soccer ball, agility, balance, addressing and reacting to coaching points, and targeted shooting and dribbling. Essentially, the program addresses the fundamentals of soccer sport.
Some additional targeted activities for the older two groups will include higher-intensity exercises such as high knees, lunges, hurdles, cone jumps, etc.

Additional Focus
Additionally, the program will encourage productive feedback from the students to encourage a fun environment that also celebrates individuality. Some examples of this include open forums to perform a favorite activity (soccer skill, soccer celebration, non-soccer dance move, or song).
Not only do we focus on physical activities, but we also emphasize the laws and rules of the game through coaching points.
By implementing all of the different aspects of the program, we aim to foster technical development, self-awareness, teamwork, and self-esteem.
