Coaching Philosophy

Mount Washington Valley Soccer Club coaches understand that our primary obligation is to the child, and we will make every effort to consistently create a positive experience for every child. We recognize that each child is unique in character and in ability, and that ability alone does not qualify one for playing time. In competitive travel programs we will hold tryouts and be selective about team placement. Aptitude and attitude will be criteria for team selection. In keeping with our commitment to the children we strive to educate those who work with them, providing training and licensing for our coaches. We will model leadership and sportsmanship, and balance all aspects of player and team development with winning games. We will devote our time and knowledge to age-appropriate training, and in return we will expect a high level of player commitment. Every player who is dedicated and hard working will have earned his or her playing time during games and tournaments. All players will be treated as equally valued team members.
