In youth soccer, players begin with the passion to play but lack technique. What we've found is they learn some technique, but find themselves in a struggle between technique and passion. We help them build the correct technique and ball mastery to have the confidence to use those new skills as "second nature" on the pitch playing the beautiful game. - FC7Soccer Management Team

Green Cleat: Novice thru AYSO
White Cleat: High-Level AYSO thru Premier Club 🥉⚽B-Flight is Green Cleat and White Cleat Levels for soccer beginners thru rec-soccer like AYSO and AYSO Allstars to early club. This is where you learn and hone your technique. Players begin with footwork touches; 400 (green) - 600 (white) touches in 10 minutes. They then move into ball mastery intro, agility, basic shape, and finishing accuracy. This is where they are introduced to change of speed, change of direction, and as White Elite how to switch the field.
Attacking if fun but defense wins championships. So we teach proper man-marking and defensive training exercises. Lastly they play and show it off in small sided games using the same core techniques taught by European clubs, South American clubs, and elite North American Technical Directors. There is an installation process per quarter after testing to offer a broader scope of game play to players. Green and White Cleat are the grassroots levels where they learn footwork, "pass-receive-shot" radius-rotation, ball mastery skills, scanning, communication, shape, spacing, soccer acumen, defense, and begin developing workflow vision with a scaling Soccer IQ. |
Flight II
Silver Cleat: Advanced Bronze/uses the Thinking Model Flight II is for core club-soccer level competition. Players work on 1000/1200 footwork touches [10 minutes] to start the day. Our installs at this level and above become more about achieving mastery of the game. Players train on the details of technique, movement, workflow, tempo, and ball mastery. They hone their skill-set for man marking and zone-line defensive tactical dexterity, to intro into complex set-pieces with agility for finishing (tactics/style/tempo).
They will master PKs, shooting, passing, off-tempo runs/angles, change of speed, and moving into shape. They learn competitive level team concepts; formation frameworks and honing shape, use only 1-2 touches and to pass/move/scan/communicate. Players will begin developing a broader soccer IQ for decision making and risk taking, and learning the pitch corridors for detailing the outer perimeters in elite play. They scale their game into swift uniform transitioning in possession changes (learning how to steal possessions). Players train in small-sided games. They work on tightening up game play execution, and move toward reading ahead as they hone their mastery of match-ups, problem-solving, rotation power, and tactical performance by using the Thinking Model. |
Flight I
Gold Cleat: Silver level elite player/at the edge of Gold Flight I is for club-soccer technicians (Select). Players work on 1400/1600 footwork touches [10 minutes], refine ball mastery, enrich the defensive mindset, and deep-dive into reads.
Footwork speed and ball mastery touches begin to scale. Quarterly installations are very high-level. They work on set-piece discipline, symmetry with off-tempo runs for agility and finishing, PK strategy and tactics increasing skill-sets, and train on the edge to elevate delivery-timing and performance. Players raise the elevation of their soccer IQ for game play, incorporate the pitch zones into planning and movement radius with power/rotation/stability, and will sharpen their game play posture without the ball. They add depth to their training by playing in small-sided games and/or scrimmages to expand creativity and mimic game situations that polish match-up acumen, increase awareness, radius power, stability, delivery rotation, accuracy, and vastly improve their game. |
ELITE Flight (Coach Afsheen)
Elite Cleat Level: Mastery achieved. PlayElite. ELITE Flight is for elite club-soccer technicians with a team player attitude, accountability, and deep commitment to the game. Installs include hidden secrets that only players at this level would have the sophistication to execute on the pitch. This includes elite performance tactics, ball mastery, speed-IQ techniques, and strategic game play.
Players work on high-quality footwork touches with tempo [1800/2000 in 10-minutes], superior ball mastery techniques, offensive and defensive mindset proficiency (think ahead), set-piece strategies-execution-timing-symmetry, command of agility and finishing, PK artistry, calculated restarts with set-pieces to gain advantage, and they always train on the edge to enhance their Soccer IQ manifesting elite level play. Players will also master nutrition, kinesiology, film study, and meditation. Our player development incubator is cultivated in the small-sided game play using strategies like position and game play installs, on-the-fly shifts, and disguise play tactics to improve delivery of team and individual speed, accuracy, tactical reads, shape, along with favourable match-ups to harness player efficiency and mastery of best practices to play elite. |
FC7-GK Training Soccer IQ: Flight GK
GK: We currently offer Goal Keeper training. It is at the competitive level only. Players learn anti-rotation power, footwork workflows, and strategic communication as a GK. Players receive a separate "GK" grading when they are assessed on testing days. If you are interested, ask your coaches for more details or call us.
