DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY
ABOUT ASC DEVELOPMENT ACADEMY
Auburn Soccer Club’s Development Academy is a player-centered, education-focused program designed to develop confident, skilled, and intelligent young players. Our shared curriculum emphasizes long-term growth, age-appropriate challenges, and a strong foundation of technical and cognitive development.
HOW WE TRAIN
We train together as a large group and then split off into smaller groups during the sessions. This allows players to be group with other players within their same ability range. Players can move from group to group each week as they progress. We always come back together to end the session with a structured scrimmage. Sessions follow the Play–Practice–Play model to keep learning fun and effective.
WHY 4v4
Small-sided 4v4 play creates more touches, more decisions, and more opportunities for creativity. This format is ideal for building foot skills, game awareness, and confidence in young players.
