Soccer Academy - South Delta Secondary
Program Description
The South Delta Secondary Soccer Academy will become a co-ed program beginning September 2011. Stephen Burns, a former player with the Vancouver 86ers, is the Head Coach and Teacher Coordinator for the academy. Assisting him on the field are Jag Sajan and Paul Bahia. Strength and conditioning is provided by instructors at the Winskill Fitness Studio and Delta Gymnastics.
The Soccer Academy is open to motivated male and female soccer players in Grades 8 - 10. It is a two block program, with soccer occurring daily in the block before lunch. This program is also open to students outside of the SDSS catchment area, however, students from other Delta schools will need to attend SDSS every morning to participate in the Soccer Academy.
Students in the Soccer Academy work on skill development within their daily schedule, better enabling them to succeed athletically, academically and personally.
