Youth Development Program - Ages 9/10 & Under (U9 & U10)

About the Youth Development Program

The youth development program continues at the U9 & U10 age groups, or players born in 2014 and 2013. At this age group, the youth development program continues to provide an extended opportunity to develop the foundational skills of our young players in order to prepare them to join a club soccer team participating in competitively appropriate league formats. By this age group most players have attended a tryout for and joined a club team or were not quite ready to transition to the club program. Continuing in the youth development program is a good option to prepare players to transition to club soccer teams and to enjoy the game recreationally while continuing to improve as an individual player. The ultimate goal is to prepare the youth development players to be ready to tryout for a club team in the spring.

How to register

Age Groups

Our programs are aligned with United States Youth Soccer age groupings and international standards. The youth development program is for participants who are in the U9 & U10 age groups, making them age 9 or 10 and under at the end of the seasonal year for which they are registering. Ideally divisions will be separated by age and gender, but may be combined and co-ed depending on registration volume in each age group.

Schedule

The junior development program is offered twice during a seasonal year. The Fall program begins in September, and the Spring program begins in March of the following calendar year. Each program season is 8 weeks and combines weekend games and weeknight training sessions. 8 in-house games are played on Sundays ranging in start times from 12:00 - 3:30PM. Training sessions are held once a week (Typically Mondays at 7:00PM, but days/times are subject to change) and are conducted by our training partners who are vetted and approved youth trainers. Training schedules by age group are communicated prior to the season start date. Coaches will also have reserved field space to conduct 1 coach lead practice each week. Times may vary depending on coach availability. All games and practices will be held at Gloucester Township Community Park on Hickstown Rd.

Game Rules

The youth development program provides small-sided game formats with 7 players for each team with goalies aligned to the United States Youth Soccer recommendations for number of players and field size. The youth development program is more closely aligned to the FIFA rules of play and laws of the game and modifications appropriate to the age groups, but the focus remains on teaching, growth, and opportunity to play.
