Elite 5 Soccer Academy
Elite 5 Soccer Academy is a complete soccer players development program designed to grow their skills in each area. We take a tailored approach to each player ensuring that they are developed in each area before moving on to another part of the training.
The program is based on a 13-week curriculum. Although it is recommended to attend all 13 weeks to gain full mastery of each area, players may select the dates that work best for their schedule. Each class will start with a review of all skills learned and then progress to new skills, so even new players will have the opportunity to learn and develop.
Age groups: 7-9, 10-13, 14 and above.
Pricing:
$35 drop in / single class
$100 for 4 classes ($25 per class)
$180 for 8 classes ($22.50 per class)
NOTE: in the event of a player’s schedule change, classes may be rescheduled with prior notice.
