ABOUT OUR SELECT PROGRAM

This program is an INVITE-ONLY supplemental training program for highly competitive, dedicated and enthusiastic soccer players who have been identified by our coaching staff, have previously been part of the program or have been evaluated by our coaching staff prior to being invited. The goal is to create a high-level training environment where players can continue to excel and improve their overall game under excellent coaching as a supplement to their full-time club team. We aim to give players tournament opportunities to challenge them individually and collectively. The tournament teams are made based on the players performance, commitment, overall level or play and availability. Selection for the Futsal REGIONAL teams is not guaranteed!

During our winter season, the players will train once per week (FUTSAL) and depending on the commitment, availability & level of play, we will enter a few Winter Futsal tournaments, the futsal CT Cup tournament. There is also a potential to enter teams in the US Futsal Federation Regional tournament in Atlantic City, NJ but it is not guaranteed for every player. This winter, we will also be hosting multiple One Day Tournaments (3v.3 & 5v.5 formats) at our JA Elite Indoor Soccer Training center as additional playing opportunities for our players.

Our Winter Futsal SELECT program will raise our players' technical abilities to a new level! Our Futsal program fully engages EVERY player while on the court, and makes players have constant touches on the ball. This will continue to help develop quick decision making, and a high level of confidence on the ball. With our unique teaching approach and coaching style, our curriculum will always prioritize the individual player development. Our training sessions will have specific training topics each week where we will cover, attacking, defending, transition, 1v.1 situations, movements off the ball, attacking and defending as individuals, pairs and as a unit. During the "SCRIMMAGE" time of the session, we will always implement a tactical approach on build outs, interchanges, and dead balls. 

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ: Please know that our WINTER select program is independent to your club or travel team. This program is an INVITE-ONLY supplemental training program for highly competitive, dedicated and enthusiastic soccer players who have been identified by our coaching staff, have previously been part of the program or have been evaluated by our coaching staff prior to being invited. The goal is to create a high-level training/playing environment where players can continue to excel and improve their overall game under excellent coaching as a supplement to their full-time club team. We aim to give players tournament opportunities to challenge them individually and collectively. Our winter SELECT program is made up of players from different clubs and travel teams. Given the winter tournaments format, there may be multiple teams in an age group, and the team placement of players will be determined by their level of play during the SELECT practices, and/or based on the tournaments' format. Our roster decisions will be based on the pool of players we have, regardless of what your club/travel team may be, and what players may be on your club/travel team outside of our SELECT program.
