Philosophy
Our goal of training is to develop children and young people in the basic, advanced and performance areas in such a way that they meet modern soccer and sports requirements. Our basic principles are

Individual support and development of ALL players
We want to improve all players according to their personal ability. Results and tables are secondary, especially in the basic and advanced areas.

Performance-oriented, high quality training
In our training units, our training concept is taught to children and adolescents and systematic learning to play football. In addition to content-related aspects, the joy of playing and movement is always the focus of our work. In order to meet these high demands, we rely on a dedicated and qualified team of trainers.

High number of training units
Our athletes have the opportunity to participate in up to 7 training units per week. In addition to 3 training units in the afternoon in the team network and a modular cross-team training unit with station training for various training focus areas, 2 voluntary technology training units in the evening as well as training with a playful focus are offered in front of the school. In addition, our professional fitness studio and our soccer court can be used individually at any time. At the weekend there are usually competitive games or performance comparisons. Goalkeepers train twice a week with our goalkeeper coach Norman Wohlfeld.

Today 36 students from 8 different nations live at our boarding school and train together with 80 young athletes from the region to get a little bit better every day.

Medical care
Our physiotherapist is available twice a week to treat sports injuries in an in-house consultation. A general practitioner and a hospital are within walking distance from our boarding school. Soccer City also maintains good contacts with various specialists in the region.
