"At The Top Of Mississippi"

 Programs

 Not everyone is ready for competitive, but they may be ready to commit to a more developmentla based team or more training. Perhaps they want more than training but are not ready for the "jump" to competitive. Due to this we offer three levels of training:

 Division 1 - These teams play weekly in the MSSF league and travel a few of times a season. (fall season, spring season) We aim to keep these teams age leveled so that they can stay together year in and year out. The travel costs are a little higher. This is not the division for first year teams or players new to competitive.

 Division 2 - These are newer teams that are just starting out. They train twice a week and play league games at Mike Rose. They go to a few carefully selected tournaments each season (Fall and Spring). This is also a much better division for split age teams. The teams are rostered in dual age groups. (U-10, U-12, U-14, U-16, U-19) 

 Academy - The Academy program is a once a week skills training session including, not not limited to dribbling, juggling, passing and receiving, heading, all traps, etc. conducted by a licensed USSF coach. A great way to develop more skill and confidence without committing to anything but training. It is open to anyone born between August 1, 1996 and July 31, 2000. This program runs $20.00 a month for training fees with a minimum of 10 participants.

 Goalkeeping  - Goalkeeper specific training is a once a week training session devoted strictly to goalkeeping. The program is run by a National Goalkeeping Diploma coach with 8 years of State ODP, 2 years of college, and 10 years of competitive goalkeeper coaching experience. This program costs $40.00 per player, per month and has a minimum requirement of 6 participants.

 Personal Training - Available upon request. The fee is $25.00 an hour per player.
