Select-TEAM U11-U12

OVERVIEW

The Villarreal Nebraska Academy Select Program U11 and U12 focuses on the individual development of well-rounded soccer players with a proven curriculum based on Villarreal C.F. and other international training methods. Select players will be registered with USYS and will participate in local leagues and tournaments. Select players will be dually registered with USYS and USYF. The Select program is designed to produce players that can consistently compete within the state. The main focus of the Select Program is individual player development to compete at the highest level locally, enjoyment, and playing with friends.

Players are invited to join the program during tryouts in June/July each year. Limited openings may exist during the year if a player is looking to join mid-year.

TEAM FORMATION

Team Formation (or commonly known as Tryouts) will follow the requirements and timeline set forth by Nebraska State Soccer Association. Refer to the Registration and Tryout Information page for tryout dates, times, and locations.

Note that, per NSSA requirements, tryouts are not required for admission into U10 and younger programs, and players can register for those programs beginning each June. Both registered and interested players are encouraged to participate in TEAM FORMATIONS: tryout/evaluation sessions to help the club place each player into the appropriate initial training group. You Must register even if you can not attend in order to be placed on a team.

Coaching is provided by Nationally Licensed and VNA trained Villarreal Nebraska Academy coaches who have studied and understand the VNA coaching curriculum. All coaching is under the supervision and direction of DOC Jorge Sambataro and a club program director or age-group coordinator.

UNIFORMS

COMMITMENT LEVEL

Select players are encouraged to participate in other athletic, academic, and extracurricular activities. To the extent possible, players are expected to coordinate their activities in order to attend all scheduled soccer training, games, and tournaments. When conflicts are unavoidable, players must provide Villarreal Nebraska Academy with advanced notice of absences, a minimum of 1 week notice prior to games, 1-month notice prior to tournaments. Numerous training absences may adversely affect playing time during games. Game-day notifications may adversely affect playing time during games.

Community Service: Each Select player is expected to provide a minimum of two (2) hours of mentorship and/or community service per season. This service is an important component of the program as it teaches the players to give back to the academy and community. Acceptable hours include volunteering to assist in training sessions for Submarines, Yellow-TEAM; tracking player points during other VNA Soccer games; assisting with club events; or other community activities as approved by the Managing Director.

PLAYER MOVEMENT: In order to respond to differing development rates as the year progresses, Select players could have the opportunity to move between training groups and/or teams to optimize each player’s growth. Player movement to a higher level program will cost the difference between the programs at the time of movement.

NON-CLUB SOCCER ACTIVITIES

The curriculum and developmental process that Villarreal Nebraska Academy utilizes is uniquely structured to provide a systematic progression of soccer skills over time. As a result, the optimum development takes place within the structure of Villarreal Nebraska Academy training and competitions. If players choose to participate in non-club soccer events anyway, they must first notify Villarreal Nebraska Academy of their intent and obtain permission from the DOC.
