      <image:title>The Player - THE PLAYER</image:title>
      <image:caption>Each player will be taught that it is their responsibility to be prepared before the whistle blows, to give their very best during the game, and to continue learning after the game is over. When a player has completed their time in the program, our success will be measured by the fun they have had, the love for the game they’ve developed, and their individual ability to step on any soccer field with any player of their age and become a productive participant. We help our children to not just play soccer but to become complete soccer players. We develop two footed players. If we are able to teach players success in developing their own soccer abilities, we also believe it is something that will translate into other areas of their life. Helping to enlighten the youth to their potential is our greatest reward. To be effective, we must have players who are not afraid to make mistakes while giving their best effort and testing the limits of their ability. Our ultimate goal is to prepare each player to someday become the best coach, parent, or person they can be. In the process of striving for these goals, we will help to develop some great players and maybe some great teams. We know that out of 1000 players we are fortunate enough to teach, maybe one will be still playing competitively at age 30. Almost all of the players will become parents or leaders and hopefully coaches: that is what defines our real mission. We want our players to learn to play with a smile on their face. That means they will need to love to have the ball at their feet.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Player - U.S. YOUTH SOCCER BIRTH YEAR CHART</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Birth Year Chart below provides an example on how to calculate age group and birth year. Year minus age group equals birth year. For the purposes of calculation, it is the second year of a split-year competitive season which determines what number should be used to calculate age group.</image:caption>
