The Clarkson Sheridan Soccer Club has introduced a formative plan for the development of young soccer players. Our organization is of the philosophy that the development and promotion of sports and physical activity should begin at an early age. To this end, we offer a soccer training programme that is different and profound which will run throughout the year. This allows us to have a focused approach and will enhance the development of children through a consistent programme. It will stand the test of time with on-going instruction, which to us, is the only way of achieving positive results. These positive results are achieved through the assimilation of the instruction received by these children, who in the future will benefit and their development in this sport will occur in a more efficient manner. We have also decided, that starting with the 2008-2009 season, our programme will include an extra weekly session of physical education.
This initiative allows us to contribute to the community and improve, not only players' technical skills in soccer, but also their physical development, in a harmonious way. Children do not currently receive enough physical education in schools - at least not by professionals in this field - and we would like to contribute in this way to this area of children's development. Our programme will focus in the following areas: motor coordination, basic motor skills (technical running-balance-coordination body-recognition space/time-agility).
How do we prioritize and ensure this development?
Sport Skills
- Learning the basic technical fundamentals of soccer with the ball (pass-reception-dribbling-control-oriented use of different parts of the body to control and pass the ball).

- Interpretation and understanding of the game - Team Play
- When, How and Why - to defend (basic concepts)
