.HOW TO.
.JOIN?.
We are always looking for players that are striving to become elite by gaining the knowledge, technique and mental volume to become a better player. Players that represent our COE program have been selected for their attributes on the field and their mental capacity to take on Elite level instruction. Players must attend our initial assessments in order to join.
​
We offer a FREE 30-minute assessment in the form of a private lesson to NEW players that have the desire to join the program. We provide the assessment all year around FREE of charge. After the assessment, if we feel the player has the ability to join the Center Of Excellence, we will send out details on how to sign up for the program, via email.
COE PRICING: The cost per month after a successful assessment is $80 (All Age Groups). League fees not included.
