COACHING METHODOLOGY

Unique Coaching Methodology

District Elite staff has collaborated with professional coaches from renowned clubs such as Santos and Atletico MG in Brazil, and Benfica in Portugal to develop our most recent coaching methodology. We have integrated our training methodology into the characteristics of Washington DC youth soccer by infusing it with an international flavor inspired by the experiences of these coaches.

A key advantage is its structured progression. As players grow older and their physical, mental, and tactical understanding develop, the training sessions are designed to align with their development stage.

We've carefully crafted a series of activities and training sessions that are tailored to each stage of development, ensuring that our players receive the best possible guidance and support as they advance in their soccer journey.
