Why play in the Fremont Competitive Program?

Phases of Development

Every curriculum through the phases of development is based on the needs of the player, and the most effective way to effect the development of the individual player. On a micro scale every session plan takes in to consideration the technical needs of the player, the physical demands of the individual player within their specific role, the psychological consideration for the demands of the session on the player and the ability to challenge and bring out the best in an individual. Tied to all this is the coaches understanding of growth and maturity, and how a chronological grouping of players means the coach must be aware of the biological age, sports age, and the current rate of growth of an individual within the team.


Growth and Maturation

Player-centric

The four pillars are not mutually exclusive of each other, and can have an effect on each other during different periods. Therefore making a true player-centric program important for a players development. Youths develop at different ages, this has a big impact on their physical attributes, and can be misleading in a players actual development. During a growth spurt, there can be a negative effect on a players performance. This change in physical development, has a negative effect on the technical performance, so considerations need to be made for a players psychological state to keep confidence and  motivation high.

No one can predict a child’s development due to the unknown developments of the players four pillars. Age is a huge factor in the pathway, and is unique to each individual. A factor to why winning is not a true reflection of an individuals playing ability.
