Do our school values transfer to sport or specifically the Soccer Specialist program? Short answer - most definitely! Today we were embedding the concept of “Being Brave.” Before our skills session with the Roma Mitchell Sports Academy we had to prepare a literacy gallery on individual bravery on a soccer field. Responses included, running out in front of a crowd, taking a penalty at the end of the game, not arguing with referee decisions we didn’t agree with, facing bigger and stronger opponents and learning new skills knowing we will make a mistakes. Being involved in the Soccer Specialist program develops a player’s skill but also begins to prepare the student to become better humans and positive community members.
Soccer Specialist Program
One of the benefits of committing to the soccer specialist program gives each student access to advanced high school training. As part of their soccer learning they get to visit the Roma Mitchell Sports academy and access their facilities, equipment and expert coaches. This not only fast tracks their soccer development but also provides an easier transition to high school the following year. They become familiar with high school standards and expectations, identify some safe staff and minimise some of the stress that will occur in their initial high school transition.
