Training/Curriculum

Phoenix Premier FC Academy Program has one focus and that is to develop a player technically. We have built a proven model that will provide players the technical training to be able to succeed in soccer.

Players in the Academy Program will work towards mastering a technical training curriculum that will prepare them for 4v4, 7v 7, 9v9 games and eventually the 11v11 games played by older age groups. The Premier Academy Curriculum is specifically designed to be consistent with the Phoenix Premier FC competitive program.

Season Length

The Premier Academy season format runs from August through March annually. The program is specifically designed for families new to soccer who are keen for their players to experience high level training at an early age. 

• Fall Session:  September through Mid December (days and times to be announced in June)
• Spring Session:  January through March (days and times to be announced in November)

Practices

Technical exercises will be taught and practiced, and each session will end with small-sided games to reinforce the technical training, build teamwork, and introduce basic tactical game concepts. Practice and game locations will be announced prior to the start of season.
