Hotspurs USA launched its recreational division in 2003, called the Hotshots Soccer Academy.
The Hotshots Soccer Academy recreational soccer program is open to all children 4 - 8 years old.
Players are organized on teams by age and geography and are led by volunteer coaches. Hotspurs USA provides support and resources to these valuable volunteers.
In an effort to further the soccer development of all the children in our recreational program, Hotspurs USA provides:
- Trainers to each team,
- Free Friday skills sessions, and
- Hotshots summer camp.
Players in the Hotshots Academy Program will enjoy playing while learning and therefore reaping the benefits of being part of a well organized soccer league.
As part of this program, in addition to the help from the trainer, a set of well thought-out practice sessions are provided to the volunteer coaches in order to assist them in introducing children to the fundamentals of soccer techniques through fun games and put these newly learned skills to use by playing small-sided games. The program operates under the simple belief that kids learn by participating. Thus, everyone plays at least 75% of the time in games.
- Practice sessions designed around activity and fun: no lines, short explanations, fun games, lots of touches on the ball, conducive to learning,
- Small-sided format and Minimum 75% playing time in games to maximize active participation and touches on the ball, and
- A fun introduction to the game of soccer!!
- Manual with tested developmentally appropriate practice curriculums that allow first time coaches to create a fun environment conducive to learning for their players,
- Help from a qualified trainer that alleviates work and pressure of planning practice sessions and instead allows the volunteer coaches to be more openly involved in the fun at hand and more open to learning themselves.
- Trainers and volunteer coaches successfully cleared through the Risk Management program. (Live Scan – finger printing),
- A positive environment for their children to learn the game of soccer and have fun,
- No worries of playing time, their child will not be stuck in a position and stress will be on development, not winning.
Every Hotshot player is encouraged to attend a weeklong summer camp organized by the Hotspurs USA coaching staff. Additional information about the camp will be provided at registration.
The game season will begin in September, after Labor Day. Games will be played every Saturday at Los Coches Creek Middle School.
The playing format is 3v3 and 4v4 soccer (US Soccer and Cal South recommended).
The volunteer coaches will coach Saturday games. It is important that parents support the program as volunteers. Our trainers will work with the coaches during the weekly player practices/trainings to teach them how to coach practices and games.
