About Us
High Level soccer coaching
SFC Academy is a high-level soccer program designed for players who want to train and compete at an advanced level in local leagues throughout the year. SFC provides consistent training and competitive play over 11 months, with three training sessions per week. The academy team competes at the travel level in the WYSL Fall and Spring seasons, and we enter teams in the Chelsea Piers Winter
Tournament.
Our club focuses on technical development, with the goal of turning strong technique into effective skill as players progress. We provide a fun, challenging, and competitive environment where players are encouraged to express themselves, play without fear, master the ball in tight areas, and develop the ball control needed to compete at a high level. We believe that with the quality of our coaches and curriculum, our teams will be ready to compete in EDP in the near future.
Our Coaching Philosophy
Possession-Based, Intelligent Football
The club’s playing philosophy is centered on maintaining possession, building from the back, and creating through movement and precision passing. Players are encouraged to think creatively and make smart decisions under pressure. Tactical awareness is embedded in every session—helping players understand not only their positions but also the broader flow of the game: when to attack, defend, and transition collectively.
Competitive and High-Performance Culture
SFC fosters a demanding yet supportive environment built on consistent, high-intensity training. With three sessions per week, players are conditioned physically and mentally to meet elite-level standards. Participation in competitive leagues and tournaments ensures they are consistently challenged—developing adaptability, focus, and the winning mentality required to reach their full potential.
Player-Centered Development and Leadership
SFC prioritizes holistic player growth—developing technical ability, confidence, and character both on and off the field. The focus on early-stage learning (ages 6–12) builds a strong foundation in discipline, resilience, and self-expression. Through mentoring and mixed-age training, players also grow as teammates and leaders, learning accountability, teamwork, and respect.
