Winter Academy is a recreational program built for players to build their skills! Sessions are held once per week on Saturdays. This program starts the first week of November and there are three sessions to choose from that go all winter!

Program Concept

The Winter Academy program is once-per-week session (30 min technical + 25 min game) held on Saturdays. This allows players to play a small sided game at the end and showcase all of the skills they learned at the start of each session. Our program is open to all Western New York families. You do not have to live in the City of Buffalo to join our club!

Additional Information

All players receive a DSC jersey to keep. The jersey will be distributed at your training session in the first or second week.
All players are also encouraged to have a full bottle of water whenever they go to training.
Nardin Athletic Facilities requests that players use only indoor turf shoes (flats or small rubber cleats, no longer plastic spikes).
We will have soccer balls for players to use at training so there is no need to bring one.
