Alexandria Growth Program (AGP)

Professionalized training + league play for 3rd—6th graders

What is Alexandria Growth Program (AGP)?

The Alexandria Growth Program (AGP) was created to bridge the experience between the Recreational League and Academy programs. The AGP is for players interested in trying out for the Academy in the future OR for anyone looking for an extra practice + game per week in a professional environment. (We do offer an option for just an extra practice per week, similar to the Ball Mastery programs of the past). The program will focus on individual and small group development drills to increase kids' technical skills and understanding of the game. We will form teams that will compete against Rec+ teams from other clubs in the area.

This year (our first year of AGP!) we are looking to create the following teams:

• 3rd and 4th Grade Girls Team 
• 3rd and 4th Grade Boys Team 
• 5th and 6th Grade Girls Team 
• 5th and 6th Grade Boys Team 
• Each team will have an ASA professional coach with their team for the entire season

AGP players must also play in the Rec League. AGP is a supplementary program to provide an extra practice and game per week. 

Coaches: 

We are proud to have many of our Junior Academy and Academy coaches working with your kids, providing a high quality and fun soccer environment.

Registration:

This program's season coincides with the Rec League. Hour-long training sessions will take place once a week for six weeks.
