Rapids Academy

Welcome to the Rapids Academy Section!

The Rapids Developmental Program is much like the Select program in many ways.  Each team would be provided with 2 nights a week of professional training from one of our qualified trainers (same coaches used at select). We are the bridge between Recreational soccer and select.  The difference between playing Academy and Rec can be quite significant.

What sets us apart from other Academies in the Area is the quality of coaching they receive from the best staff.  Along with this we follow a a curriculum that is recognized a the highest level in the form of Coerver.  Coerver Pyramid of Coaching focuses on Ball Mastery, Receiving and Passing, Moves 1v1, Speed, Finishing and Group play.  With Professional managers and players in todays game highly recommending this form of soccer teaching, it can only be the best!  Check out Coerver at www.coerver.com www.coervercoachingtx.com.

There are no tryouts for this program, as we keep winning in perspective.

 

We seek to find the best in our players by coaching the importance of technique and how their technique will be carried out in games.

 

We also look to teach our players how to be better people on and off the field.

 

Training will commence early August and continue through until the 3rd week of December.  The season itself will not begin until sometime in September and finish in November.  Each team will play roughly 10 games against other select clubs from the Greater San Antonio area.  5 of which will be played at home (HEB Fields).  The other 5 will most likely be played in San Antonio. 

 

The Academy Programs spring season will return in January and continue through until May.  

We will also be look to enter our teams into tournaments before and after each season.  (TBC)

As our program has grown we have seen a sharp increase of talent.  As small as New Braunfels is, we pride ourselves on top quality training which in turn has helped our kids to compete at the highest level in the Greater San Antonio Area.
