Centennial SC is happy to announce a comprehensive winter technical training program for all registered U9 soccer players during the months of January, February and March at the National Sports Center (NSC).  NSC has opened its expanded sports hall that includes new state-of-the-art artificial turf. The new turf significantly improves the quality of NSC as a winter indoor training facility.

 

The winter training package will run on Saturday mornings starting on January 3, 2009 through March 7, 2009, and costs $125 for advanced registration.  This winter technical training provides Centennial SC players with quality winter training opportunities and also provides consistency in age group development.  This training will supplement the spring technical training that has occurred over the past several years at the Centennial Sports Arena during the spring indoor season.  Questions regarding the winter training can be sent via e-mail to info@centennialsoccer.org.
