SPFA TARGETS MAJORLY OF THE PLAYERS FROM ECONOMICALLY CHALLENGEDBACKGROUND.

ACADEMY PHILOSOPHY

SPFA targets majorly of the players from economically challenged background. We support players who are best at soccer, irrespective of their affordability to accommodate the charges of coaching. Thus comes Free coaching for players coming from the underprivileged part of society.

THE ACADEMY WILL DEVELOP THE INDIVIDUAL PLAYER IN THE FOUR PILLARS OF THE GAME.

TECHNICAL

A player’s individual technique on the ball and how it is applied to the demands of the game will be our focus.

TACTICAL

Each player will be evaluated on how they carry out their individual and team tactics during the course of the game. More specifically how they adapt and adjust to the demands of the game.

PHYSICAL

Each player will be evaluated by their speed / agility, strength / power, recovery and overall game fitness.

PSYCHOLOGICAL

Each player will be observed on their soccer attitude on and off the field, i.e., preparation, motivation, emotions, willingness to play and excel playing at different locations depending on team strategies.

SPFA is more cautious in grooming up a play and ensures each one possess a combination of these components & more importantly how they apply these components to the demands of the game.
