Competitive Program

The City SC Competitive program offers professional coaching and a higher level of play to around 100 teams, from under 7 up to the under 19 age group.

The City SC Player Development Program is a progressive development academy where players will receive age-appropriate training and playing opportunities under the direction of dedicated and licensed coaches. The focus is on the joy of play and the development of technical skills, and ultimately, to provide a life long passion for soccer in every child that comes through our ranks. City SC has designed a specific curriculum that is appropriate for each age group.

Run by the Directors of Coaching, Competitive Pre-Season Training Camps are an integral part of our pre-season schedule and are essential for your child’s soccer growth, in preparation for the upcoming season. Pre-Season Training Camps also allow the Directors and HOPDs (Heads of Player Development) to get to know all of the players within their respective year groups, in terms of their current level of play as well as on a personal level. If you cannot make any of your specific sessions you need to let your team coach know asap so they can work on substituting you in with another level appropriate group.
