HPFC Development Academy Starts September 10th!
HPFC is pleased to resume it's Development Academy starting on September 10th at Starfire Sports Complex. The sessions will take place on field #2. This season the club has added sessions for the U11 to U14 age group.
We will offer a continuous ‘4-week’ Program running throughout the fall and winter.
PLAYERS MUST BRING A BALL (fully pumped)
The schedule will be as follows:
- 5pm-6.30pm: U7-U10 Boys & Girls
- 6.30pm-8pm: U11-U14 Boys & Girls
Children attending the Development Academy you will also receive the Development Academy t-shirt that they are expected to wear during the sessions.
Cost : $50 per session (a session is made up of 4 Fridays)
Who: U7-U14 ages - Open but HSA kids a priority
The program provides QUALITY over quantity as a priority. We do intend to expand the program even further to accommodate older age groups but we must first ensure that the best possible Coach Development is in place. Eventually we aim to have programs being delivered for U15 and older.
When: Every Friday for a 4-Week program starting in September 2010 – Families can register for one or more programs if desired. The Development Academy is to run throughout the fall & winter on a regular basis. It is not mandatory to register for more than one program though priority will be given to previously registered children (i.e. children on program 1 will be able to register for program 2 over children wishing to register for only program 2).
Where: Starfire Field #2
Why: Fundamental technical training is the core of all successful players and as a result this program follows the HPFC Development Curriculum.
Coaches: HPFC DOC & existing HPFC & HSA coaches.
Coach Education: HPFC Coach Development Program.
Player Training: HPFC/HSA 12-month Progressive Age-Specific Curriculum

 Ray Calls For Respect
http://www.thefa.com/TheFA/Respect/
Hollywood tough guy Ray Winstone shows his support for The FA's Respect Parent Guide to Youth Football
Winstone is here to promote The FA's new Respect Parent Guide after research showed that more than 7,000 youngsters had hung up their boots over the last couple of years due to pressure from the sidelines.
Winstone believes that parents need to lose the "win at all costs" attitude and bring some enjoyment back to the game: "Kids want their parents to watch them play football but they want to be supported by them, not embarrassed."
The FA Respect programme has already had a major breakthrough in the grassroots game with dissent figures showing an 8% improvement nationwide on last season's totals while 567 leagues have shown their support by becoming Respect Leagues.

Attitudes Are Contagious (Video)
Mass Youth Soccer has developed and produced an outstanding video focusing on the issues of sideline behavior of adults, and specifically on how that behavior is affecting the retention of qualified referees. While many have talked about the issue of adult sideline behavior, Mass Youth is the only organization to turn the talk into a valuable tool that teams, towns, clubs and leagues can put into immediate use to help curb the unwanted noise along the sidelines.
