TSX: HELPING PARENTS NAVIGATE THE SOCCER LANDSCAPE 

Parents constantly ask the question, “What’s next?” Over the past 30 years, soccer participation in America has grown by leaps and bounds. Any number of leagues, clubs or academies offered to parents in their respective cities can be daunting. Navigating the choices at hand to determine what is best can be extremely confusing. 

TSX offers local, national and global insight and serves as a filter for all the noise and distractions. Parents can lean on the expertise of our coaching staff to not only train their child, but guide them in their next steps forward. Our guiding principles are Development, Competition and Exposure. The themes for the summer training program highlight these principles giving each participant a foundation to build on. 

TSX has pulled from the European structure and model for player development. The molding of a player begins very early and the channels used to engage in the sport are typically well-mapped. In the States, however, talent identification and proper development tends to lag many years behind the crucial timeframes. By the time a player harnesses the technical skills, their tactical awareness has not yet progressed and thus the windows of opportunity can slip away. This is where our team of soccer experts can be such a useful asset. 

If knowledge is power, then we equip your child with the right information and techniques needed for their optimal development. The roadmap to reaching one's potential is always a unique and special journey; TSX provides the tools necessary to travel with directed intent and purpose.
