In addition to building a strong skills-based foundation among our players, our program is equally interested in establishing core values, character traits & habits to support the growth of the whole person. The Fierce Five framework is incorporated into multiple aspects of our program and is a critical part of what we carry with us on and off the field.

Mental ToughnessHaving emotional control & confidence during challenges. Ex: When a player on the other team fouls me, I remain calm & continue to play my game.
GrowthContinuing to learn & make progress. Ex: When I am having difficulty learning a skill, I keep trying without getting discouraged because I know that I will improve with feedback and practice.
IntegrityDoing the right thing even when nobody’s watching. Ex: When my coach asks me how many goals I scored in a shooting competition, I tell her the correct number even if it’s lower than the player on the other team.
Hard WorkGiving full effort & pushing beyond my comfort zone. Ex: When we are doing strength exercises, and my coach turns her back, I finish them all with good technique even when I’m really tired.
FunEnjoying the game with others. Ex: When my team is losing a game, I continue to enjoy playing, competing, & working to improve with my teammates.
