20 Overall Philosophy

21 Our #1 Priority Province wide promotion of a PLAYER first mentality

22 Ask ourselves the following question Have we as community of soccer people always made our development decisions based on the players interests 1 st and foremost?

23 Players make the difference it is as simple as that! This should be our guiding force as we strive to improve!

24 Overall Objectives

25 A question we must all answer What is the objective of creating a High Performance League in British Columbia?

26 1. Develop players to play at the National Team level of programming and/or the next level of play Professional level and University level! 2. Impact the daily environment of the player CRITICAL TO OVERALL IMPROVEMENT! 3. Create an atmosphere which provides for a meaningful sustainable competition format!

27 FACT Our players are entering the international arena behind their counter-parts around CONCACAF & the world in numerous key technical areas! Technically limited comfort with the ball and too slow Tactically naive and hindered by lack of technique Physically soccer specific characteristics Emotionally ability to prepare, sustain and deal with the level of competition presented We require a Provincial and National Standard!

28 Fact Worldwide training of players is becoming more sophisticated while we stubbornly cling to out dated traditions! The environment of the elite player is not good enough Talented youth players are stretched too thin Too many games Not enough good games/competition Limited and low number of training sessions Required coaching standards are not met Scientific data and technical research and recommendations are ignored

29 o Harmonize all elite level of programming in BC to alleviate congestion and provide clarity o Recognized and sustainable player development program o Talent identification o Quality training and match environments o Coaching development o Create an international standard of player
