PPFC Player Growth
Every youth soccer player with a ball at their feet has felt the joy of the Beautiful Game. For some, that’s enough. Others are driven by bigger dreams. Either way, PPFC will encourage, challenge, and guide your player on their individual soccer journey. We are unwaveringly committed to doing what is best for your player in their continuous transformation, equipping them to keep building their skills in the pursuit of excellence.
We believe that as your player dedicates considerable effort to achieving personal success, they will reap the rewards of their hard work. This is why we prioritize individual growth ahead of team success.
We give your player the opportunity to explore various positions until the age of 13, ensuring they do not get assigned more than 70% to a particular position. This approach aims to instill empathy and broaden your player’s knowledge of the game. At age 14 and older, your player will progressively specialize in one or two specific positions, enabling them to thoroughly grasp the associated expectations.
Both on and off the field, your player will experience the emotions of winning and losing. We strive to create opportunities for your player to be challenged, build confidence, foster a positive mindset, and nurture a “goal-scoring” mentality. In addition to regular league play and tournaments, we take an intentional approach to arranging scrimmages against teams of varying competitiveness – some stronger, some weaker, and some on an equal footing.
We want your player to enjoy the best possible learning experience at PPFC. At times, we will move players from one team roster to another to ensure the best fit for their growth trajectory. This movement is carefully determined by evaluations from the team coach and technical director.
We prioritize loyalty to all our PPFC players. However, if a new player demonstrates a higher level of ability than a current PPFC player, we reserve the right to make a roster change that best fits both players. You are always welcome to seek clarity from our technical director.
