Winter Recreational Training Program Details
Keep your skills sharp in the off-season! Join Recreation Program Director Keith Wienke and CSA Staff Coaches for winter training! Free CSA gift!
This camp is for players ages 5-13.
The CSA Rec Winter Training sessions are run by Recreation Program Director Keith Wienke and CSA professional coaching staff. There is a small staff-to-player ratio to ensure a positive experience for the players. Players are separated into small groups based on age and/or skill level. Coaches instruct the players in various drills designed to increase their technical skill with the ball, with the emphasis on maximizing “touches” on the ball and minimizing standing around and waiting for a turn. The coaches strive to improve the players’ dribbling, turns, passing, defending, and finishing with age-appropriate drills that allow players to enjoy learning new skills and gain satisfaction from refining their technique. In keeping with this philosophy of maximizing touches on the ball, any game play will be small-sided, such as 3 v 3 or 4 v 4.
Required Equipment:
Training is held OUTDOORS. It does get cold and damp in the winter evenings – please be sure players are dressed appropriately in breathable layers with hats and gloves! Don't forget the shinguards!
All players should bring a ball and water to each session!
