Training

The Urbana Soccer Association has adopted a curricular approach to training. All teams in an age group follow the appropriate curriculum for that age group. This promotes consistency between teams, and helps reinforce the fundamentals needed for skillful soccer play. These curriculums are based on information learned at various licensing courses (USSF F, E, D and C, US Youth Soccer National Youth, NSCAA State, Regional and Advanced Regional); various international coaching courses (Brazilian, Dutch and Danish); numerous DVDs and books (especially the Baffled Guide by Ron Quinn and Tom Fleck), as well as many years of youth coaching experience.

Curriculums have been developed for the following age groups:

  • U6
  • U8
  • U10

We hope to create U12 and U14 curriculums in the near future.

You can choose to view the curriculums as HTML or to download the original Word document via the links below.

NOTE: Some of the formatting is lost in the HTML version so the Word version may be a better choice.
