Dear Crew Juniors Families,

We are excited to announce some new programming and opportunities in our U7-U10 age groups for the 2012-13 year, where we anticipate considerable growth.

Crew Youth Academy U7-U10 Program Highlights:

1. Lower fees
2. More frequent training opportunities across the model
3. Less weeknight travel
4. Easier for players to move up during the year
5. Increased access to higher level coaches for all players
6. A creative environment focused on learning and technical development - instead of a restrictive and over-structured competitive environment.
7. A comprehensive Crew branded individual player development curriculum

In order to fully explain this comprehensive 2012-13 programming, we would like to invite next year’s U7-U10/11 players & parents to attend an informational meeting and training session in Crew Stadium.

Next year’s U7 & U8 Boys & Girls will train on the stadium field from 5:30 - 7:00 pm. The Parent Informational Meeting will be held from 6:30-7:00 pm in the Upper 90 club. Please be sure that your son or daughter brings cleats and a soccer ball.
