Dallas Texans Florida is pleased to announce our registration for U10 SuperLiga Program, for Winter 2010. Open to boys and girls, the SuperLiga will serve as a preparatory program for the Dallas Texans Florida Select Division. The focus will be on establishing the correct foundation of skills and decision making needed to make the transition to Select Level play at U11. Players will receive professional coaching twice a week and experience a number of different game play formats on Saturday mornings designed to facilitate and encourage player development. The program is available at both Ashton Brosnaham and Roger Scott complexes.
The SuperLiga hopes to attract the best young players in the area and provide the elite development program that they need to develop their game. It will also be a great option for the accomplished recreational player who now needs more than a traditional recreational program can offer, but doesn't carry the commitment of travel soccer.
We are now registering for the Fall 2009 season which runs from mid-August through November. The cost is $160 for the entire Fall season + the yearly player registration fee of $50. The player registration fee includes the cost of the required SuperLiga Uniform Kit.
Q: Why the shift away from Travel Teams at U10?
A: We want to put the focus on the individual player at this age group and subject them to extensive technical training, fast paced small sided games, and basic decision making. We believe that putting the emphasis on an individuals' development, rather than a winning in a team format, will produce more accomplished players for the future. Also, with more and more States banning U10 Select Travel play, we wanted to establish and grow our program ahead of the curve. Over the past couple of seasons we have also seen a sharp decline in the number of U10 teams attending different tournaments, with most events struggling to make appropriate U10 Brackets.
Q: Does this mean that this program will be less competitive?
A: Quite the opposite. Our staff are very motivated to produce creative soccer players, and intend to create a very demanding environment, while also keeping it fun.
Q: When will they play games?..and what Format?
A: Games will be Saturday mornings, inter program, run and supervised by the professional coaching staff. First part of the Fall season will be a 3v3 league, 2nd part will be 4v4 plus GK's. Winter will be indoor. Spring will be 3v3, followed by 5v5/6v6 at UWF's mini field with boards. We will also look at scheduling some friendly games, participating in our own hosted Club Tournaments, and possibly 3v3 tournaments. We anticipate Saturday activities to be 3 times a month, with a weekend off.
