Old Dominion F.C. Recreational Program
Our U8 Recreational Program takes skills learned by our “HUGGERS” (Micro/Jr. HUGS Program) and puts them to play in small-sided games. Teams will consist of a maximum of 6 players playing 4 vs. 4. Players will be encouraged to play every position (including goal-keeper) as they begin to learn the fundamentals of team play. Teams play 2 20 minute halves.
Professional trainers will work with our U8 player’s once/week at the Junior’s Skills Academy. Volunteer coaches will reinforce skills and concepts at a 2nd training sessions during the week.
The U8 Cross-Over Program allows players selected by our staff coaches to continue developing and prepare as a team to play in our “travel” program. Many of these “cross-over” teams go on to play in one of our local travel leagues (WAGS, NCSL or ODSL). Teams will receive professional training and coaches will receive support from our licensed trainer staff. They play 7 vs. 7 with a goal-keeper.
