2013 COACHES & DEVELOPMENT OVERVIEW

Here is an overview of general development plans for 2013 for both High School age players and those at U14 and below.  In a continuing effort to field highly competitive teams, and maximize our player development opportunities we are growing current programs and putting some new structures in place.

We encourage all of our coaches to train together when possible, especially within their age groups. This is to be done within the normal team concept. Also, use of the player pool for guest playing and training opportunities is encouraged.   In addition to joint training between the teams, our goal is to coordinate and increase coordination of player movement between the teams for tournaments; training and league games utilizing the RCL Player Pass;  a coordinated training curriculum; and improved “internal scouting” to ensure that players are properly placed and have the opportunity to excel and progress.
