NOW FUTBOL CLUB PRIDES ITSELF ON A FOUNDATION OF A STRUCTURED, DISCIPLINED AND STABLE PLAYING ENVIRONMENT

Ever since its formation in 2022, NOW Futbol Club has played with a belief and a focus on eye pleasing, technical soccer.

Our methodology develops each players technical, tactical, and understanding of the very fundamentals of soccer. This approach has a very positive effect on an athlete’s education and personal growth, allowing the player to take responsibility for their own development. While winning is definitely a part of the process in our club, building and developing a winning, competitive mentality is much more important to us.

Working hard with parents and athletes in unison, we provide many opportunities for character development and to prepare our young athletes for the pressures of the highest levels of elite soccer in the U.S. and for life beyond our club and the sport itself.

Building on a foundation of hard work, based on ball mastery, technical training, tactical application, strength and conditioning, along with mental health, builds an athletes decision-making and problem solving abilities, all of which are crucial components of a soccer players development.

Repetition is a very important aspect of our club training philosophy/culture. High level technical ability comes from deliberate practice starting from a very young age in our Academy structure. With a curriculum that is focused on technique and ball mastery we challenge our players to break lines, maintain possession under pressure, pattern play and creating opportunities to create and finish. Ultimately encouraging our young athletes to be expressive on the field, to be creative and to solve problems on the field themselves.

Our overall goal, as a club we take great pride in having a long-term developmental process in place, starting from our Pre-Academy program, working with our wonderful coaching and leadership staff, all the way through to our Elite programs and every level in between.
