🔥 OUR 1st SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT – Building Complete Football Players! ⚽️

On the field, ⚽ academy, our mission is simple: develop technically complete players through smart, focused, and personalized training.

💪 What makes our program special:
•✅ Private, Semi-Private, Small Groups (4-7 players) for maximum attention.
(Medium/Large Group and up to a whole team are available, if requested)
•🎯 Focus on coordination, technique, and more technique!
•📊 Every player will be analyzed individually — we’ll identify strengths, weaknesses, and build personalized plans
•🔁 High repetitions to create real improvement — not just drills, but mastery
•🎥 Video analysis during sessions — players can see their movements live on the iPad and learn the correct technique instantly
•📈 Parents will receive regular feedback reports on their child’s development and progress

We’re not just training players — we’re shaping football minds and bodies to think, move, and play the right way

#onthefieldsoccer #onthefield
#albertasoccer #reddeersoccer #centralalberta

⚽ Why We Play 4v4 & 3v3 Games On The Field Ltd.?
At our academy, we believe in developing smart, confident, and creative players — and small-sided games like 4v4 and 3v3 are the best way to do it!

Here’s why:
1. More Touches, More Learning Every player is constantly involved — dribbling, passing, finishing, and defending. No one hides in the game!
2. Faster Decision Making Smaller space = less time = players learn to think and act quickly — just like in real matches.
3. Creativity & Confidence Players express themselves, take risks, and find solutions without fear of mistakes. 4. Better Understanding of the Game They learn spacing, support, movement, and teamwork in a natural, game-like environment.
5. More Fun, More Development Kids love it — it’s energetic, exciting, and keeps everyone involved from start to finish.

🚀 We’re opening soon! Join us and experience football the right way — where development meets enjoyment!
