“BEST OF THE BEST” SKILLS TRAINING!

The Surf program is for premier soccer players to develop a foundation of skills,  and experience in unscripted play building self-confidence to become an outstanding soccer player. Each session will be provided by a Kansas City Surf professional coach and you will train with like-minded players who have the drive to develop and improve. Each program is designed to improve ball control, increase speed of play and provide the skill set to beat players in 1v1 situations. They will learn when and how to use the skills and grow confidence in executing those skills in the competitive game environment. This also includes open play in Spring season. 4v4 is a great why for kids to test these learned skills in a competitive unscripted environment.

Surf Skills Training

Our goal at Surf is to provide players with opportunities to develop their individual ball skills and play with confidence in their team environment.

About the Program:

Having the ability and confidence to play under pressure is crucial in soccer. We want all Surf players to be technically competent and confident in high pressure situations. Our program is specifically designed to help players in the following situations:
  • Beat opponents in 1v1 situations
  • Manipulate the ball under pressure
  • Remain calm and composed in tight spaces
  • Escape pressure
  • Open Play (Spring)

The sessions:

In situations where players are under pressure from an opponent, having skill is important, but being able to understand how, when, and why to apply those skills are just important. In our Surf Skills Training sessions, players will go through an intense 60-minute session that requires a lot of focus.  In these sessions we will:
  • Focus on 1 or 2 skill moves in each session
  • Break down the skill into smaller components before putting it all together
  • How to shift weight
  • Parts of the body involved in the skill
  • “Selling” the move
  • When and why to apply the skill
  • Awareness of the situation
  • Position of the defender
  • Using visual and physical cues to trigger skill move
  • The sessions will be ran by Kansas City Surf certified coaches.
