If you, or your child, are a motivated player looking to be part of an outstanding premier soccer club like the Sachems FC - we invite you to try out for the upcoming season.
SFC Methodology
The club takes a 3-phased approach to training it’s players:
1. To build a physical athlete: working on technical skills necessary to play the game effectively and efficiently.
2. To develop intellectual athleticism: understanding the tactics and strategies to win games and how to play smart.
3. To create intuitive athleticism: Creating both a physical and intellectual player promotes trust in one’s team and confidence in a player’s own technical ability. This establishes an essential intuition for the sport, in turn, allowing them to be a stronger player.
Dual-Rostering Philosophy
Playing on both a town travel team and the SFC is strongly encouraged. We believe it provides a different and equally important soccer experi-ence. SFC Coaches are not obligated to give all players playing time in premier matches. While SFC’s main objective is player development, winning matches is also important for the club and individual teams. Playing on a town travel team ensures that all players get adequate exposure to game situations and enough play time to develop. A player's development is also fostered within a town program where he or she can experiment with more time and space relative to premier matches.
