Arsenal Winter Training Program is designed to allow our players to continue their training and development as a player throughout the winter months in a top notch facility. There is no additional field or coaching cost for Arsenal players to attend the Winter Training Program.
The Winter Training Program is for all Developmental and Select players to fine tune their technical ability, while at the same time fostering a good club atmosphere. Part of the training for the U11's and above includes "Game Night". Game Night is the third session of the week where players come in to just play the game. On Game Night coaches and parents take a back set to let the players just play without all the coaching and cheering from parents. Players are randomly divided up across several age groups and then are just told to "Go play and have fun." This set up of a wide spectrum of ages and skill levels simply adds to the players development. The older and more skilled players are expected to take a leadership roll and organize players, while the younger players get the opportunity to play with the big kids and challenge themselves in the speed of play.
