Field Players will go through a rigorous training regimen that will encompass both individual technical skills as well as tactical situations in both small sided games, and larger game environments.
- Each player will complete a technical training regime with “fast footwork”, ball control skills, heading and shooting. Players progress to the basics of team play and tactics with emphasis on creativity and playing under pressure.
- While Refinement of the players’ technical training is taking place, specifically 1 v 1 skills and ball possession, combination play will be taught.
- Small group tactics and the principles of team play are covered. Players also learn about fitness training, nutrition and game preparation.
Players are organized by age groups. High School age groups continue to improve technical skills and tactical knowledge, while also focusing more on the responsibilities of the player’s functional position and more advanced concepts of team play.
Within the Vermont Voltage Soccer Academy players are further organized by gender and playing ability to form training groups. These groups will play matches in the evening against their counterparts of similar ability.
Goalkeeping is a unique position in the game of soccer and requires specialized training to develop the goalkeeping skills, self confidence and toughness to be the team’s last line of defense and first point of attack. To be effective in the position, goalkeepers need to be well trained technically and tactically to integrate into the team’s defense. The goalkeeper is the leader and communicator.
The design of the Vermont Voltage’s goalkeeper training will develop goalkeepers to be decision makers. The program is designed to be progressive based upon the age, ability and experience of the individual goalkeeper.
