ADD-ON OPPORTUNITY: Have your player attend the Soccer Youth Performance Training session on Thursday, Dec 19 from 5pm-7pm (Session 1 and Younger) and 7:30pm-9:30pm (Session 2 – 2011 and Older). Our Performance Training offers a unique opportunity for players to go through a two-hour training session on the field a day before the event begins. The training consists of speed, agility, coordination, and technical exercises, as well as game-realistic drills to get your player ready for the week ahead. Our training sessions are conducted by performance enhancement specialists. All players must register in advance to reserve a spot. Cost is $75 per player. Only 100 spots available per session. Plus, all players attending the training session will be able to check-in early and receive their Golden Cup Kits.
ADD-ON OPPORTUNITY: Our All-American Series locations feature a Player Card Combine during the event allowing the players to participate in six different skill testing stations to determine their stats for their official Soccer Youth Player Card, like what you might see with a FIFA card.
The Player Card Combine is a great way to determine where your player stands in comparison to other players from around the country in your players age group. A scaled rating system based on the specific birthyear and gender of the player is used to determine the scores.
All players cards (in a digital format) are released after all the summer events are completed and uploaded to player’s profiles on socceryouth.com. Plus, if attending our Golden Cup and Super Cup events while participating in the Player Card Combine, all players have the opportunity to get their card BOOSTED!
