Technical Training for field players and goalkeepers-also info on 3rd night training

Roanoke Star Goalkeeping Training
This year at Roanoke Star the club is hosting Goalkeeper Training for all goalkeepers (or players interested in the position). The training will concentrate on improving the individual ability of our goalkeepers physically, mentally, technically and tactically. John Faircloth, our goalkeeping Director will head up the program and will be assisted by college coaches and Roanoke Star staff.

 All Goalkeeper training sessions will last for 45 minutes. The training is mandatory for the goalkeepers. If a player cannot attend the training due to a clash with their team training they are to miss the team training and attend Goalkeeper training. If a player cannot attend 3 nights per week at Roanoke, then they should attend 1 Goalkeeper session and 1 team training.

 The schedule for Goalkeeper Training is as follows:
U10 – U14 Girls – Thursday 6.40pm – 7.20pm, Vinyard II, field #5
U10 – U14 Boys – Tuesday 6.40pm – 7.20pm, Vinyard II, filed #5
U15 – U19 Girls – Thursday 7.20pm – 8pm, Vinyard II, field #5
U15 – U19 Boys – Tuesday 7.20pm – 8pm, Vinyard II, field #5
Invite only session – Thursday 7-8pm, Vinyard II, field #5
**starting 8/28/08 John Faircloth will invite different goalkeepers to an extra session each week. The goalkeepers invited will change on a regular basis based on needs and performance*

Roanoke Star Soccer Club – skills training
This year at Roanoke Star the club is hosting skills training for all players in the U10 – U13 age groups. The training will concentrate on skill work where the aim is to improve the players’ technical ability. Ben Freakley and Adam Pickeral (VMI Head Coach and Assistant Coach) will be heading up the sessions as well as staff coaches from Roanoke Star and Graham Maclean, the Director of Coaching. The training will also incorporate our strength and conditioning program that is aimed at giving the players an introduction to basic techniques concerning improving the physical aspect of the game.
All skills training sessions will last for 1 hour. The training is not mandatory but is highly encouraged. Players who live over 45 minutes away from Roanoke are not expected to make the training.  The schedule for skills training is as follows:

Roanoke Star Soccer Club – 3rd night training
This year at Roanoke Star the club is hosting a 3rd night of training for all players aged U14 and above. The training will concentrate on “functional” work where the aim is to give the players a better idea of the requirements of playing in different positions and improve the players individual ability which will help them move on to the next level. Roanoke Star has had unparalleled success in players graduating to play at the college level and we feel that the extra functional training will help better prepare our players for the college game. The training will also incorporate our strength and conditioning program that is aimed at giving the players an introduction to basic techniques concerning improving the physical aspect of the game.
All 3rd night training sessions will last for 1 hour. The training is not mandatory but is highly encouraged. Players who live over 45 minutes away from Roanoke are not expected to make the training. Roanoke Star will provide a training guideline for players who are unable to attend the 3rd night practice. It is expected that players work on their game at home anyway, but these guidelines will help by offering tips including how to organize “street soccer” and some fun ideas for working on your own.
The full 3rd night training schedule will be posted early next week. The training starts on Tuesday 19th August at the VA fields at 7pm.
