Pathways Program

Ages 9-11

One of the most important times of development for youth soccer players is the time before and during middle school. The pathways program is designed to provide structure for players as they begin to approach this age group, aiding them in their development and allowing them to reach their potential earlier.

Program Focus

What your child will learn from working with us.

Successful Players in Soccer

At HAP, we believe that youth soccer players can often be kept in the dark about what a successful soccer player looks like at the next level. We are committed to 100% transparency with the students, and we intend to display to them why we do the drills we do.

Passing

At this age, players are beginning to develop an understanding for how to successfully play a role in a team. Thus, it is important for them to learn and practice different passing techniques to successfully play the ball to their teammates on the field.

Skill Techniques

While players of today want to use flashy skill moves to impress, we want to ensure that team play is preserved. Thus, we teach our players skill moves that can be useful in multiple situations, and the scenarios in which they should be used.

Team-Play

For those aiming to compete at the high school level and beyond, being a team member is essential. Therefore, this program begins to instill the values and practices necessary to become a successful teammate, something we know first-hand coaches appreciate.
