Players will be divided into age and skill appropriate groups. Academies are for the player who is serious about taking his or her game to the next level! Participants will enjoy our low coach to player ratio and individual attention that they receive each session.
Academies are considered progressive, meaning that each day will build on the previous day and each month will build on the month before that. Therefore, you can be assured that your child will be learning new things each time they attend.
