CAMP INFO
CAMP DETAILS:
Soccer Skill Schools’ "Numbers Approach Methodology" brings the best skill development methods from all over the world to the Midwest with particular influence from Brazil, Holland, England, and Spain. The methodology starts with one player: the individual. Each player is guided toward complete mastery of the ball, encouraged to make decisions on their own, and equipped with over 60 individual skills to help win the individual competitions that take place during every game. Players are then progressively added to the practice (2 players, 3 players, and 4 players) to recreate the small-number situations that occur in every game, culminating in a small-group model adopted by the youth academies of the world's finest professional clubs. Players are encouraged to isolate players through creative skills, movement, or combinations in order to create "numbers up" situations within each game or exercise. The numbers approach maximizes the number of touches, decisions, and combinations for each player during each practice.

Soccer Skill Schools’ Methodology & Skill Band Challenge ©
SKILL BAND CHALLENGE ©
"Practice never ends." Players are encouraged to extend the practice to home by practicing their skills independently. The 60+ skills we coach during the week of camp are broken down into groups based on the level of difficulty and type of skill. Based on the martial-arts belt system, players are rewarded when they master a group of skills with a different colored skill band. This helps develop freedom and focus for young players. Players take the Skill Band Challenge at the end of each week of camp.
