We believe that successful programs are painstakingly detail-oriented in training and preparation for all competition. Our coaching staff approaches each practice with the purpose of stimulating a hunger to improve. We believe that fostering this desire will help shape our student-athletes into successful, positive competitors who will play hard for one another. Excellence is always the goal, and with high standards will come a successful program.
We achieve this by focusing on these aspects of the game and our players:

• Tactical: This component helps the player fit into the team and program. We aim to create intelligent players capable of adapting to the constantly changing circumstances of competition.
• Technical: All team players must be individually competent and proficient in the most essential skills for each position. For example, a central midfield player needs techniques and expertise different from an outside back.
• Physical: Strong and resilient players will provide significant advantages to the team. A tired player will need help to think correctly and is prone to commit more errors.
• Psychosocial: The human being is often affected by their emotions. We will train our players to use these emotions to their advantage and turn them into strengths and not weaknesses.

• Relational Leadership
• Servant Leadership
• Speaking the Truth
• Living with Integrity

• Maximizing player development while they enjoy the game is essential to our player development plan.
• An attacking style of play is the best path for learning and development. In order to develop creative players, freedom of expression is key.
• Players need to learn from their mistakes, and we encourage them to try again and give them the opportunity to do so.
• Our philosophy sees the team in variations of a 4-3-3 system of play as the best format in which to develop our players. Within this formation, roles can be clearly outlined, and there is a greater set of options for passing and ball retention, which facilitates learning and provides flexibility in attacking and defending.
