Nitros Select 2022 Outdoor Program

 

Outdoor Program Overview

The Outdoor Select Program is offered to players ages U9-U12 (born from 2010 - 2013) looking to continue their development in soccer in a more structured environment. The Select Program looks to help bridge the gap between NT’s Recreational House League and Development programs while giving players a more structured environment with a pathway to further development.

The Select Program does not play in weekly league games as we try to accommodate for players that go away to camps and vacations during the Summer months (July and August). Instead of league games the Select teams play in Festivals during the months of May, June and September, which are preset for the season before registration.

Exhibition games will also be arranged to give more playing opportunities as well as inter-squad matches during the months of July and August. Festival and exhibition game information can be found further down the page.

Practices will run using different formats depending on the group: GAG (Game-Activity-Game) and the Station Model are the two session formats used in the Select Program.
