The Future of soccer in this area rests on the shoulders of our youngest competitors, the Futures! The Riverhounds Academy staff sees this as the starting point in the development of all of our young players. The objective of the Futures program is to focus on players aged 4-7yrs old and is designed to prepare young children for the fun and excitement of participating in soccer. It is here that the Academy staff can build and create good habits for each player in the program, as well as offer a curriculum that works on balance, coordination, and age appropriate strength development. With a focus on enjoyment, these players will realize the talent they possess in a positive, professional environment.

As we move into the Winter Academy we will offer 3 different Futures groups -

1. Advanced Futures - Every week training for one hour - Evaluation Required

 - FULL WINTER SCHEDULE CLICK HERE

The Advanced Futures group is comprised of invited players from previous Futures sessions that have moved through the curriculum at an advanced pace, as well as players identified at the upcoming Evaluations. This will be aimed at the players at the older end of the Futures spectrum who has an understanding and base of skills in place. If a player is interested in the Advanced Futures Group they must attend an evaluation for the U8.9 Age Group. The evaluations schedule can be found at the following link - CLICK HERE

The Regular Futures groups will train once a week and will be determined on a first come first serve basis. Each group will have no more than 15 players in a group.  The curriculum will train our youngest players (Ages 4-6yrs) through a fun and challenging curriculum. It does not matter which group you choose as the curriculum will be exactly the same, it will just run on different days of the week.
