Deep Run places a high level of importance on the development of its youngest players. We recognize that this is where the future begins and consequently, our priority is the development of each and every player who attends. Our philosophy is to provide participating players with the correct environment to learn the fundamental aspects of the game without eliminating the fun and enjoyment of it, which remains the most important element for success. The goal of the program is using a proven curriculum to make sure all the young players have a positive experience within a non-competitive environment. The training in this age group provides age-appropriate sessions with the focus on developing ball-control, technique and coordination. We want players in this age group to have fun and learn dribbling and kicking skills to build upon. Teams are co-ed and will be grouped together by age, and elementary school attended when possible. This group plays 3v3 or 4v4 small sided games to make sure every player gets the opportunity to touch and dribble the ball during games. If you have any questions or would like to volunteer, please contact Kevin Fischer at IMsoccer@dvrsa.org.
