U10-12 Learn to Train
Learn to Train is the 3rd stage of Long Term Play Development!
NorWest Soccer's Recreational program is an IN-HOUSE LEAGUE. We offer local community soccer to North London and the surrounding area. Our recreational players do not travel to play other clubs. All fields are located between Hyde Park & Highbury Rd (as West & East boundaries) and Fanshawe Park Rd. & Oxford St. (as our North & South boundaries).
This age group will play twice a week - one practice and one game. For the first time in the player's experience, matches are officiated by Ontario Soccer match officials, and games follow Ontario Soccer's small-sided game rules. Games will be played as 7v7 for U10/11 and 9v9 for U12/13.
Teams practice in our group practice PTM sessions and need at least one volunteer coach. Fully Qualified coaches who want to run independent practices should contact us.
Practices and Games will be held from mid-May through mid-Aug.
As a cooperatively run not-for-profit community club, all our teams require volunteers.
Contact us if you are interested in co-coaching your player's team at icoach@norwestsoccer.com
per Ontario Soccer standards
At this age, practices focus on developing four core competencies for LTPD with a focus on gameplay, as outlined by Ontario Soccer.
Warm-up
Getting the players prepared to practice and play, mentally and physically. Incorporate various dynamic movements.
Small-sided Game #1
Two teams e.g. 5v5 play with direction & targets.Just let them play!
Technical:
A theme is chosen e.g. passing, receiving, dribbling etc. & exercises where lots of repetition can occur are done.
Small-sided Game #2:
Here is an opportunity for the players to apply what was just taught in the technical stage.

We try hard not to make changes to the outline above, but final division schedules are determined by player registrations annually and sometimes necessitate changes. Late player registrations can mean spring schedule changes.
We aim to publish full schedules the week of May 1st annually in your PowerUp Member Zone Calendar.
