TRAINING FOCUS This phase of the training will be highly focused on tactics and learning to play as team in the 11v11 format. This age group is primed to receive tactical knowledge, and our coaches will begin implementing the club tactical focus of possession play. Skills will continued to be developed, but AFC coaches expect players skill level to be high as they have gone through the first two phases of the three phase process which are based on the learning and development of skill. These are the ages where we begin to transition to competitive league play, as we expect to compete at these age groups.
