Hundreds of Challenger coaches each year have helped the company develop one of the most innovative approaches to coaching youth soccer in the US. Our experienced staff study the game at all levels and we have identified the key techniques and skills that your players need to work on and master to reach their true potential.

CHALLENGER 1,000 TOUCHES CURRICULUM


The early mastery of technical skills is one of the most important elements in the development of youth soccer players.  Challenger’s NEW 1,000 Touches Curriculumhas been created to address the key areas of technical development that have the biggest impact on their performance in the game.

 

Challenger’s New 1,000 Touches Curriculum will provide high levels of repetition of the most valuable and frequently used soccer skills and as the title suggests, it will give each player over 1,000 points of contact with the ball in each 3 hour daily camp.


TECHNIQUES COVERED THROUGHOUT THE WEEK
Each day, the coaches will take the players through a progressive series of skill building practices from unopposed, to opposed, game related and finally into a game.

  • Soccer ABC - Players will improve their Agility, Balance and Coordination.
  • Dribbling - improve the ability to change direction and move at speed.
  • Moves - master more than 20 different ways to turn and fake opponents.
  • Passing - improve accuracy, pace and 1st touch control.
  • Shooting - improve power and placement with each foot.
  • Heading - learn how to safely and confidently head the ball.
  • Tackling/Defending - improve your tackling skills and learn how to defend.
  • Freestyle - daily program of juggling, lifts and balances by John Farnworth.
