SCP Youth Soccer (Speed Conditioning Performance Youth Soccer) is here to develop youth players on and off the pitch. SCPYS is committed to providing athletes the opportunity to develop skills essential to positive growth in the sport of soccer and to inspire each player to a lifelong enjoyment of the game. Coaches not only will develop players in the technical, tactical, physical, and psychological components of the game, they will also teach the importance of commitment, good sportsmanship, teamwork, respect for self and others, and an ability to learn from both winning and losing. Our SCPYS coaches partner with parents and players to achieve these goals, realizing that only through commitment, hard work, and execution will we “win” both on and off the playing field. Play the SCP Way!
