SENIOR
ACADEMY
FULL-TIME PROGRAM
One of the biggest challenges we face as a country (in terms of our football pathway) is the abscence of professional development after the age of 14.
The lack of full-time training environments does not allow our Canadian talents to tap into their true potential. Top academies around the world train a minimum 5/6 times a week plus a match.
The standard in Canada is simply not good enough.
Our senior program is designed to provide each athlete with the opportunity to train in a full-time environment and dedicate themselves to their craft.
We want our players to understand the importance of consistent training.
No matter how great the opportunity a club may be able to provide, it means nothing if the player hasn’t been exposed to the proper environments through out their development.
The senior program runs a full-time schedule which means players should expect a 6 day training regiment along with weekly games. 100% attendance is expected and enforced.
We understand that this program requires a very serious commitment on behalf of the player and parent. Sacrifice and dedication are massive pieces to any elite athletes career and we want to make sure each of our players understand these two life principles.
OUR
VISION
Our goal at The Scarborough Academy is to provide a program that allows players to develop & train full-time.
Training is the most important aspect of any athletes development.
​
At the SA, we work to create an environment where our players can put in the hours necessary to be prepared for the next level (NCAA, USL/MLS, etc.). By creating a culture of dedication, sacrifice & commitment, our players will learn what it means to be a professional.
JUNIOR
ACADEMY
Our junior academy began in November 2019 is open to the the 08/09 boys age group.
​
We believe in fuelling each young athletes passion and allowing their love for the game to grow as much as possible. We want our players to have big dreams and understand the sacrifices required to achieve them.
​
These aren't just football lessons, they are life lessons.
Our belief is that in order for us to maximize a child's potential, each training session must hit all four of these key areas:
​
Physical Literacy Discipline
Technical Foundation. Tactical Development
It is very important to us that we are constantly pushing each players mind. The mind is the strongest weapon in sports and we aim to challenge each players football IQ as much as we can.
​
Academies around the world ensure that classrooms sessions are a priority in their youth teams and we believe in the same approach. Our players will be exposed to a new perspective on football in Canada.
​
​
An important piece of our junior training program is the classroom work.
Once a week, the boys will analyze a variety of topics by watching highlights of the world's best teams.
It is crucial at this age for players to understand and value the ability to analyze the game in a number of ways.
