At DME at GSI, powered by SAI Academics, student-athletes can expect a transformational experience—where elite-level soccer development meets structured academic support, all within a secure, well-rounded environment designed for growth.

This isn’t your typical day school. It’s a comprehensive, full-day immersion into the life of a next-level athlete, supported by a trusted team and a proven academic partner.

What to Expect: A Day Built for Those That Want To Work

9:00 AM – 11:00 AM | Field Training
Start your day with high-intensity, purposeful soccer sessions led by Assistant Director John Taylor, supported by an elite team of specialty trainers: Jivan Rodriguez, Jake Dube, and Chris Solari throughout the week. This staff brings decades of combined experience, ensuring that every player develops technical sharpness, ball mastery, and the confidence needed to compete at the next level. The goal is 2,000 touches a day, before most students in traditional schools get to their first break/recess.

11:00 AM – 12:00 PM | Gym Training
Head straight into our performance training block—focusing on strength, injury prevention, mobility, and athleticism. Everything is tailored to support a soccer player’s individual needs and progression, with careful attention to growth and safety.

12:00 PM – 12:30 PM | Recharge & Fuel Up
We reset and refuel. Athletes have access to on-site facilities to clean up, recover, and eat their lunch—essential for recovery and readiness for the second half of the day. We’ll tap into our newly formed nutritional experts for on the go snacks too, to keep bodies and minds fresh.

12:30 PM – 4:00 PM | Academic Study Block
Powered by SAI Academics, our structured academic block ensures student-athletes stay on track with their educational goals. With dedicated time and support built into the schedule, players can excel both on the field and in the classroom. This is a core part of our confidence in developing student-athletes, not just athletes.

4:00 PM | Dismissal
After a full day of training and learning, athletes are dismissed for a short break—just enough time to reset before the evening session.

6:00 PM – 9:00 PM | Traditional Club Experience
In the evening, players enter the DME competitive club environment with their appropriate teams. This is where the day’s training is applied in real-time, under pressure, and within a team context, getting you more touches and more preperation. Whether it’s small-sided games, match prep, or system work, players get the opportunity to compete and improve within a more traditional setting.
