HSSC SPRING RECREATIONAL SOCCER PROGRAMS

INTRODUCING THE HSSC PERFORMANCE ACADEMY CENTER

     We are delighted to announce the launch of our newest pathway—the inaugural Hobe Sound Soccer Club Performance Academy Center (PAC). This innovative program is designed to ignite players' performance levels and provide a deeper understanding of soccer.

     The Performance Academy Center will help players enhance their technical skills, tactical awareness, and improve their overall gameplay. Participants will gain confidence in their abilities, improve their sporting behavior, and develop teamwork skills that will benefit them throughout future seasons. Our goal is to build on a player's current soccer abilities and knowledge, guiding them towards the more competitive soccer pathways.

     So, what exactly does the PAC consist of????

     The PAC training consists of an 9-week program, featuring 16 sessions held on Mondays and Wednesdays, starting on Monday, March 10th, 2025 and ending on Monday, May 12th, 2025. During these sessions, players will focus on various aspects of soccer development including:

- **Technical skills progressions**: Sharpen your techniques and elevate your game.
- **Tactical awareness**: Learn the "when and where" of utilizing your technical skills in gameplay including on set plays.
- **Positional specific learning**: Understand the traits of a player and the importance of positional numbering and fitness levels.
- **Psychological application**: Develop focus, dedication, and commitment.
- **Ethics and codes of conduct for an athlete**: Embrace the values and principles that define a true athlete.

- **Laws of the game and referees.

Who is this pathway targeted towards?

     This pathway is specifically designed for players who have participated in DPL/Allstars Programs and attended Technical Tuesdays. It aims to elevate HSSC players into our

Pre-P.R.E.P pathway program and our P.R.E.P / Comp pathways.

     When does the PAC pathway start and what days is training?

     Training starts Monday, March 24th and ends on Wednesday May 14th, 2025.  Training will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays

     Who will be coaching the training sessions?

     The sessions will be conducted by Coach Julie, Lioness #58, our Hobe Sound Soccer Club Director of Coaching, and her staff. The program is open to the following age groups:

--5:30pm-6:15pm:   7 & 8-year-olds  (birth years 2017-2018)

--6:30pm-7:30pm:   9, 10, & 11-year-olds  (birth years 2014-2016)

--7:30pm–8:30pm:  12, 13 & 14-year-olds (birth years 2011-2013)

What is the cost?

     The cost for this comprehensive pathway is $195, which includes 16xhigh-level practice sessions with professional trainers, an academy jersey, and a Hobe Sound soccer work binder.  Additionally, this is a community-subsidized program, offering scholarships for families in need.

     We are confident that the Performance Academy Center will provide a valuable and enriching experience for all participants. If you have any questions or need further information, please do not hesitate to reach out.

     Hobe Sound Soccer Club is excited to announce the Spring TOPSoccer Season will begin in March at William G. “Doc” Myers Park in Hobe Sound. TOPSoccer (The Outreach Program for Soccer) is a community-based soccer program that is designed to meet the needs of children with physical and/or mental disabilities. 

TOPSoccer dates: 

March  28th;   April 4th, 11th, 18th , 25th May  2nd, 9th and 16th 2025

Fridays 5:30pm- 6:30pm.

Contact Suzanne Schroeder:  Email- storborg3615@gmail.com  Phone- 1-516-209-7337 or Julie Hemsley Email- doc.hssc@gmail.com Phone- 1-603-236-6152

Player participation and development are key elements of the program and players are placed on teams according to physical and cognitive ability and NOT necessarily by age.  TOPSoccer is designed to improve the overall fitness, self-esteem and social skills of the participating athletes.   

TOPSoccer, which was developed by US Youth Soccer in 1991, provides young players with disabilities an environment filled with meaningful learning, and developmental and physical participation opportunities through the game of Soccer.  “TOPSoccer is similar to mainstream soccer” explains Coach Anthony Sementelli, the Director of TOPSoccer for Hobe Sound Soccer Club, “except that each of the participants are assigned to an able bodied “Buddy” volunteer who serves as their mentor and guardian for the duration of the Program.  The most important factor to be considered is the safety of the athletes”.  Sementelli further stated, “TOPSoccer is a Program developed specifically around the needs and abilities of the participants. We are not just trying to put a bunch of kids into some Soccer Program.”   

Coach Sementelli, along with the Club’s immediate Past President Coach Craig Woll, started the Hobe Sound TOPSoccer Program in the spring of 2010 after watching a demonstration of the Program at a Soccer Convention in Orlando.  Both coaches define that TOPS demonstration as a life changer, and as the catalyst for starting a much needed TOPS program locally.  “Interest in the Program is at and all time high”, says Sementelli.  “There is a tremendous need for meaningful, dependable and safe athletic programs for athletes with special needs.  Last year we had 128 athletes register for the Program, and we expect that number to continue to increase as word of the Program continues to permeate the community.  With that number of registrations, as many as 150 volunteers are needed to run the Program,” Sementelli concludes.  

 Hobe Sound TOPSoccer is funded entirely by business donations, grants and monies provided by Hobe Sound Soccer Club and its member families. For more information about TOPSoccer, please contact Julie Hemsley at 603-236-6152 or doc.hssc@gmail.com
