KC Legends are very pleased to highlight the popular year round
SUPERSKILLS AND SPIRIT Soccer Program. SUPERSKILLS
AND SPIRIT is designed for the serious soccer player
who desires the very best training in dribbling and shooting. SUPERSKILLS
AND SPIRIT meets nearly 4 hours (3 practice sessions),
per week for 15 hours per month. The mid-week practices are an hour
and 15 minutes long and start off with 10 minutes of fun warm up
soccer games followed by 50 minutes of foot skills to teach the
most effective World Class soccer fakes and moves and shooting ability,
followed by a fun soccer game or small-sided soccer scrimmage. The
Saturday practice/game is an hour to 75 minutes long. This time
is dedicated to 3 v 3 games between the Academy players in that
age group. This is tremendous functional training and an ideal cap
to each thorough, enjoyable week of skill development.
