Developmental Program

Central Florida SC develops young athletes on and off the field, through the game of soccer.  Central Florida SC’s goal is to meet each player where they are in their development and help them achieve the next level – to realize their individual potential.

In our Developmental Program, we look to introduce new players to our favorite game.  Training is 1-2 times weekly, depending on age group, with Friday night games.  The focus of this program is to develop the technical fundamentals of the game and introduce beginning players to the basics of soccer tactics and strategy.  Keeping soccer fun and promoting the team game, while developing fundamental skills is the primary purpose of our developmental league.  All games are small sided – 4v4 with no goal keepers & 5v5 with goalkeepers.  Almost equal time is spent on games relative to training.

• Program Dates: Late August – Mid November (Fall 2021 Season).
• Development Program fields centrally located at the Apopka Athletic Complex – directly behind Apopka High School.
