Are there opportunities for development while my child plays rec soccer?
For many young players, soccer is all about the joy of playing with friends and classmates. But for those eager to take their game to the next level—whether through skill-building, tactical instruction, or structured, high-level training—BRSC offers a range of programs to fit every goal.
BRSC Academy
Designed for players and parents seeking more frequent training and a strong focus on development, the BRSC Academy is available at multiple locations:
📍 Burbank (Ages 5-12)
📍 Central (1st & 2nd Grade)
📍 Zachary (1st Grade – High School)
Players train under the guidance of BRSC Staff coaches, developing across five key areas: Technical, Tactical (Principles of Play), Physical, Psychological, and Social. Training groups are formed based on age and skill to ensure a challenging, growth-focused environment.
BRSC PreCompetitive
Our U10/U11 Junior Competitive Program is the first step toward competitive soccer. Players train three times per week with professional, certified staff coaches and participate in weekend games with limited local travel.
📢 Now accepting 2014-2017 girls! Email Kevin Hoeprich for registration details and to inquire about opportunities for boys.
BRSC Rec Plus
Need a flexible training option? Rec Plus allows players to train with either the Academy Program or Junior Competitive Program at the Burbank Campus, choosing between one or two training sessions per week. It’s a great way to get extra practice without the commitment of games!
For middle school and high school players, seasonal programs like the BRSC High School Training Program and the upcoming Partners in Development offer additional training opportunities.
Keep the Ball Rolling!
No matter which program fits best, the key to improvement is touches on the ball—even outside of structured training. Encourage free play, focus on ball control rather than just scoring goals, and most importantly, have fun! Parents of young players, check out “Soccer Starts at Home” by Tom Byer for great tips on skill-building at home.
