Springs Skill Centre
Boys and Girls from U9 to U13
During the skill acquisition phase (9 to 12 years), junior players are encouraged to take part in weekly trainings in addition to a game. The Springs Skill Centre is for all players aged 9-13 years to attend alongside players of a similar age, aiming to develop key skills in an enjoyable environment that encourages player development. The Springs Skills Centre offers a structured programme aligned with New Zealand Football that aims to develop:
• Four core attacking skills (striking the ball - receiving the ball - travelling with the ball - 1v1)
• Four core defending skills (marking - pressing - interception - tackling)
• Two constants of positioning and communication
If you have any questions about the Springs Skill Centre please contact our Head of Junior & Youth Football, Andy Vernon on andy@wsafc.org.nz.
