Hilton-Parma Soccer Club Philosophy
The Hilton-Parma Soccer club is organized with the expressed intention to promote the enjoyment of the game and provide a quality program where players can achieve their full soccer potential. Our players should develop character, a sense of fair play and sportsmanship. This is accomplished with instruction provided by our quality, licensed coaching staff. The Club desires players who demonstrate the greatest commitment and ability to play soccer. The primary emphasis in the 10 and under age groups will be to teach soccer at the expense of competitiveness, if necessary. In the older age groups, emphasis will change to the development of competitive teams. Player commitment is of primary importance to a players continuing development.
For example, in the younger age groups (age 12 and under), the primary emphasis is to teach soccer. Attendant to this, therefore, each team will carry a full roster, except in unusual cases and then only with the Board of Directors approval. Each player will play, on average, at least one half of each game, and he/she will have game experience averaging one half of the total season's game time (assuming that the player has been in attendance at all the practices and games).
In the older age groups (age 13 and over), the emphasis will shift to the development of teams that will produce the most competitive play. Each player can expect to play a reasonable amount of time (to be determined by his/her coaches) and there is more flexibility on the size of team rosters.
Our goal is to prepare each player to compete and find success at the High School Varsity / Premier / College level.
