Description

Specialties

The objective of EASA is to help the way youth players learn and receive the game of soccer in the United States, and use many of the training methods from those of successful youth academy programs in Europe. Most parents in the USA feel that children’s objectives from a very young age is to win games; we feel that the true objective is to teach children the true fundamentals of soccer, regardless of the score. We feel that the true, important aspects of the game for youth players, are proper technical skills, basic tactical concepts, and developing a love for the game. As players mature, our training will help players achieve the specific fundamental foundation to excel in the sport so that they can play at the highest level possible, while enjoying the process of learning.
