Atomic Development Program
Development Program Overview
The Atomic Player Development Program is a dynamic training initiative designed to elevate the skills and performance of all players within our club. Led by one of our amazing USSF-Certified Coaches, each session offers high-energy, professional group training, organized into three groups:
Group 1: U5–U8 players
Group 2: U9-U11 players
Group 3: U12+ players
This structure ensures that each player receives age-appropriate coaching tailored to their stage of growth. The program is centered around three key goals:
Individual Player Skill Development
First, we emphasize individual player skill development by focusing on fundamentals such as ball control, dribbling, passing, and shooting – Helping players grow more confident and consistent in their technique.
Increase Players’ Power, Speed, and Agility
Second, we work to increase players’ power, speed, and agility through age-appropriate fitness activities that enhance explosiveness, coordination, and quickness—giving athletes a physical edge on the field.
Build Confidence with the Ball
Lastly, we strive to build confidence with the ball by creating a supportive environment where players are encouraged to take risks, express themselves, and develop creativity during play.
