Spring Programs 2025

North Shore Girls Soccer Club offers a series of Spring Programs to extend player's current season. These programs are designed to cater to ALL levels of ability, for players looking to continue to further their development in a fun, energetic, and supportive atmosphere. The programs will be based around the technical components of the game and will assist players’ individual development in preparation for future levels of play, whether that is competitive or recreational.
There are multiple program options available:
- Development Centre - Skills & Games
- Striker School
- Scrimmage Series
- Goalkeeping Program
- Team Training
These programs are all led by our Technical Development Managers: TDM Lee-Ann Denham (U14+), TDM Vanessa Hansen (U10-U13), and TDM Tom Fruci (U4-U9).
About the Programs
Development Centre Program (U4-U14):
This program is designed to develop individual techniques and confidence on the ball through a challenging and fun environment led by our full-time technical staff. Players will learn skills that are transferable to the game through a progressive training syllabus. The “TECHNICAL” aspect is the most vital. It is key to not just playing the game but impacting the game in a positive way and it forms the base of all soccer.
‘OWN THE BALL, BEFORE YOU SHARE THE BALL’
We will coach players by emphasizing the following:
- Individual ball mastery
- Individual creativity by 1v1 moves
- Turning and changing direction at speed
- Passing and receiving techniques from angles and at speed
- Decision making based games
Striker School Program (U10-U14):
The Strikers School Program, run by our highly qualified team of coaches, has been designed to support the best part of the game: 'scoring goals'. Players will develop techniques and understanding of various ways to score that will include:
- Understanding of turning to score
- 1v1 quick finishing
- Combination play to score
- Scoring from distance
- Scoring from crosses
- Scoring free kicks
This truly is GOALS, GOALS, GOALS
Scrimmage Series Program (U11-U18):
The "Scrimmage Series" program offers the opportunity to come together once a week for 1 hour of indoor, small-sided scrimmages. This program is focused on providing players with ample playing time to enhance their skills, improve fitness levels, and most importantly, have fun.
Key Features:
- Weekly Scrimmages: Participants each week do a quick warm up and break off into teams to play scrimmages to get plenty of touches on the ball.
- Small-Sided Games: Players will participate in small-sided games to maximize involvement and touches during each session.
- Indoor Setting: The program takes place indoors, ensuring a comfortable and weather-proof environment for all sessions.
- Fitness and Fun: Players will not only improve their fitness through regular play but also enjoy the camaraderie and excitement of friendly matches.
- Support from Technical Staff: Our experienced technical staff will be on hand to provide guidance, support, and coaching throughout the scrimmages.
Program Goals:
- Skill Development: Enhance players' technical abilities through regular game-like situations.
- Fitness Improvement: Boost players' physical fitness through engaging and dynamic sessions.
- Enjoyment: Foster a love for the game by providing a fun and supportive environment for player development.
Join us for an action-packed "Scrimmage Series" where you can hone your skills, stay fit, and make lasting memories on the field!
Spring Team Training (U12-U15 Teams):
This program is designed for D2 and D3 teams that are keen to train as a team during spring in preparation for the next league season. Teams will get time in the NSGIF (Bubble) once a week on Fridays for an hour to train with their team coaches, and club staff will be out to support teams during these sessions to provide extra coaching support on an occasional basis. Teams will need to bring their own team balls and cones; however, they will have access to other equipment at the Bubble.
