Athletic Performance Series

Rhode Island Surf's Winter Athletic Performance Series is back by popular demand! Ran by various Rhode Island Surf staff that specialize in strength and conditioning and injury prevention, this program is tailor-made for players striving to improve all aspects of their game during the offseason months.

During each session, players will spend half of their time performing sports-specific activities to enhance their movement ability in the areas of strength, agility, quickness, flexibility, and explosiveness. The other half will be geared towards on-the-ball applications of these movements and overall technical improvements. Injury prevention also features as a large aspect of this program, something that is often overlooked and not addressed until injury occurs.

This program is open to external players.

What You'll Be

Working On

Players will improve footspeed and dynamic ability both in space and on the ball. Sports specific activities will enhance performance in the areas of strength, agility, quickness, flexibility, and explosiveness, along with injury prevention exercises.

Additionally, players will spend half of their time working with the soccer ball to improve speed, touch, comfort, and confidence on the ball. Technical skills/topics/combination exercises will be geared towards player development and adjusted appropriately to meet our youngest players while also challenging our senior players to advanced levels.
