At DME Academy, Sarasota we are on a mission to develop advanced athletes. Traditional soccer clubs run "rec" soccer programs. We run "development" soccer programs. Four times throughout the year we provide 4-8 week seasons for young soccer athletes aged 6-12. We focus on technical skill-set development that aligns with what we do for the older age groups at DME Academy, Sarasota. Additionally, while many clubs use parent volunteers and practice 1x per week and play lopsided games on weekends, we focus on making players. We preach skills, we focus on the ball, and we play 1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and similar variations. More contacts, more contacts, more contacts. 

Led by our Sr. Coaching staff, this isn't just another rec program.
