2. CLUB INFORMATION
In addition to the information about tryouts you will find below, we are also including some information about our programs and cost. You can also find the program description and cost information in our web site at:
realsoccerclub.org
WHY CHOOSE REAL?
Real Soccer offers the best value/cost structure of any true competitive soccer club in the
area. We get a lot of comments about the depth we offer given our low fee structure. Here is
a comment from a Middleton neighbor and former coach of a big club in Boise (she prefers
to remain anonymous):
“I am a notorious price shopper - but if shown why I should spend more money, I will
(value). Unfortunately, I did not know about quality soccer programs when my daughter
was starting out. I have not been happy with 3 of the 4 volunteer coaches she had over the
years. As persons, they are fine, but as coaches...well, they didn't know what they were
doing and the kids did not grow much.” May 2014
Our club believes in giving the most meaningful training environment to our players and to
offer development opportunities to our coaches. Our training philosophy is to emphasize
vision, technique, dynamic play, nutrition, mental toughness, sportsmanship & the
methodology of proper running & cutting. Academy team coaches are guided by
professional Coaching Directors. Competitive teams have licensed head coaches and have a
director ensuring the club training objectives are met. Besides the technical, tactical,
physical and mental components our coaches incorporate in their weekly training, the club
offers other important elements. Here are some:
Vision and Awareness Development-- During training, coaches
implement activities that develop vision, awareness, faster
processing of information and higher speed of execution. When players are trained to see and understand what is happening
around them before receiving the ball, their speed of play will increase. This is something that can be trained with fun activities
and will change the way your child plays soccer or any other sport.
Speed & Agility and Explosiveness -- The ability to run faster and make quicker cuts can be improved. In fact, a player’s
straight ahead speed and agility can be improved with minimal
3
work by targeting the muscles and joints specifically involved in
these actions. Players will receive an orientation session about the program. Then, interested players guided by their head coaches
work individually on a variety of specialized strength and flexibility exercises that are specific to running and cutting. As a positive
side effect, the jumping and kicking ability is also be improved since many of the muscles and joints involved are the same. More
information at: http://realsoccerclub.org/programs/speed-agility/
Sports Nutrition – Our club’s nutritional consultant, works with
our staff on nutrition applied to soccer. Her work reflects guidelines for proper nutrition before games, in between games,
and after games as well as considerations on proper nutrition on tournament trips and on an athlete’s life in general. The club sends
her periodic newsletter to the Real Soccer Club. More information at: http://realsoccerclub.org/programs/sports-nutrition/
Goal Keeping -- The club provides weekly Goal Keeping training for our teams. Topics include the 10 guiding principles of
Goalkeeping: hand work, body shape, ever-ready consideration, staying on your feet, secondary cover, set consideration, reaction
factor, recovery, decision/communication and organization, and first attacker. Also, other concepts will be trained: Near Post
considerations, Penalties, Cross Ball situations, Defending at Set Plays and Back Pass Rule. More info at:
http://realsoccerclub.org/programs/goal-keeping/
Video Analysis of Games/Watching Professional Soccer --
Our head coaches are encouraged to meet with players periodically to watch soccer and analyze relevant play. According
to Yessis, Emeritus professor at CSU, “Upon viewing a clear
demonstration, physiological changes occur in the body, especially if you have been concentrating on the presentation. As the action
is viewed, impulses are automatically sent from the brain to the muscles involved in executing the movement. These are very
subtle signals that do not result in movement. But the activation of the proper brain centers together with the signals going to the
muscles begin. This is how you can learn the rudiments of a skill simply form watching an athlete play.”

College Prep. Program - In 2011, the Real Soccer Club partnered with Step Ahead Idaho, a non-profit organization that helps students prepare for college academically and athletically.
Parents and students are invited to free seminars. Topics include the recruiting process, financial aid planning, college search and
resume building. One on one meetings are also available at no cost. More info at: http://realsoccerclub.org/programs/college-
prep/
Adult Soccer -- Agreeing with “US Club Soccer” philosophy and
objective of promoting Adult Soccer and Leagues, the Real Soccer Club wants to give our members opportunities for playing soccer in
our own Adult teams, at all levels of play, formats, and gender (coed, men, and women). Some objectives include: to provide a
vehicle through which our club can offer life-long soccer to our
members; to allow our club to connect youth and adult soccer seamlessly, and develop members for life; to complete the Real
Soccer Club structure, by providing an amateur and competitive adult program which competes in the local outdoor and indoor
leagues as well as adding involvement in futsal and beach soccer in the future; to follow the successful world model of full
integration at all age.
Futsal & Indoor – In the winter seasons, our club offers futsal
camps (not included in the club fees). Some coaches also will continue training with their players and play futsal. In the own
words of the US Futsal Federation, “Futsal quickly develop skills required for soccer: balance, motor ability, agility and co-
ordination, ball mastery, accurate and quick passing and receiving, perception insight and awareness.” In the futsal sessions, players
enjoy a lot of touches on the ball due in part to the constrains of the limited play space since, futsal is played on a basketball size
court and also because of the heavier ball used, which tends to stay in play longer. More information at:

3. TRYOUTS MECHANICS
During the 75 minutes tryout sessions, we will mainly be observing players' technique, and their ability to make decisions on small and large sided games situations, which is correlated with their vision and awareness.
Current players who already have a spot on the team will be participating in these sessions as well. Tryouts can be stressful, but we will try to make try-outs a fun experience for all. Our schedule is very tight during these sessions, so we may not have time to speak with you about the results right away. However, coaches will call you within 24 hours of the specific tryout date you participated in to discuss our assessment and whether your child will be offered a spot on one of our teams.
4. OFFERING ROSTER POSITIONS
During this tryout period, we will be able to make offers for roster positions. If we offer you a spot the week of tryouts, you can complete our Registration/commitment form online. For U10-U18 league play, even so you may register online before June 8th, registration will become official on Monday, June 8th per IYSA rules.
