Brookings FC League Program:
Brookings FC League offers programs for U5-High School age players.
Brookings FC Leagues are designed to teach young players soccer by playing the
game itself, which is widely regarded as "the best teacher". The number of players,
size of fields, use of goalkeepers, and modification of other rules (e.g.Offsides
Rule) is done at various groups to create a more conducive environment for player
development. Brookings FC League programming adheres closely to the
recommendations made by US Youth Soccer (USYSA), US Soccer Federation (USSF)
and the National Soccer Coaches Association (NSCAA).
Teams are coached by volunteer coaches and each age group is overseen by an
Age Group Coordinator as well as the club's Technical Director. Teams do not
travel and play in town once or twice a week depending on the age group.
Fall League - U6-U12 and U13-14 (3v3)
Winter League - High School players
Spring League - U6-U12 players
Summer League - U13-18 (3v3) players
Brookings FC Competitive Program:
Brookings FC Competitive offers programs for U9-High School age players.
The focus of the Competitive program is creating a quality training environment
where players are guided to learn and master the technical demands needed to
play the game of soccer at a higher level. All players signing up for the
Competitive program will receive:
·∙ Training sessions delivered by trained coaches.
·∙ Offered events (tournaments, Champions League, arranged friendlies,
etc) to attend.
·∙ With the exception of our home tournaments, events are not included in
the cost of the program and there will be an additional fee to attend
each offered event.
·∙ Participation in the Competitive program does not require you to
attend any tournaments or events.
·∙ Player development curriculum appropriate for each age group,
developed by the BFC Technical Director and Age Group Coordinators.
·∙ Assuming that player participates in League programming, however,
not required but highly recommended.
The training sessions will be scheduled by the age group's team manager and will
take place late Fall thru mid-July. The majority of the training sessions will be
scheduled in the winter and the summer.
