Seals Filling Summer Rosters

May 24, 2009
 
The San Francisco Seals Summer Program is well underway.  Of the 50 spots available in the Seals Summer program, there approximately 10 spots remaining.

Five players are on the pro pathway.  Twenty-eight will play or are playing with college teams.  Six are high school juniors. The list below is the most complete list, though some names are not finalized.  You can expect changes, both subtractions and additions.

This program is about the player, not the competition.  Our goal is to prepare players for their personal agendas.  The program has four areas of focus:

1.  On the ball training
2.  Strength and Conditioning
3.  Competition
4.  Didactic sessions on effective communication and tactical comprehension

Here is the schedule for the next 10 days:
  • Monday:  On the ball - 2hours
  • Tuesday:  testing aerobic and anerobic status.  Anerobic, aerobic and plyometric work.
  • Wednesday:  On the ball - 2 hours
  • Thursday:  testing aerobic and anerobic status.  Anerobic, aerobic and plyometric work.
  • Friday:  On the Ball - 2 hours
  • Saturday:  Strength and Conditioning (2 hours); Futsal (2 hours)
  • Sunday:  practice game
  • Monday:  testing aerobic and anerobic status.  Anerobic, aerobic and plyometric work.
  • Tuesday:  On the Ball - 2 hours
  • Wednesday:  Game at Stanford
Note:  Games start the following week and will average 2 games per week.

The competition schedule has been announced.  There will be a follow up email with details.  The U20 and U23 teams will play a minimum of 24 games between now and the end of July in addition to exhibition and training matches.  The opponent teams are from all over Northern California, including Santa Cruz, Salinas, Sacramento, Davis and, of course, the Bay Area.  Competition starts the 10th of June.  Remember, U20 players can play up and U23 players can play down.  We want two teams because it maximizes the opportunity for games.

Our coaching staff is as follows:
  • John Brooks, U20s
  • Shani Simpson, U23s
  • Kellan Wilson, goalkeepers
If you are interested in participating, or your have players you recommend for this program who live in or near San Francisco, Oakland, or Marin, contact us immediately with the player's contact information (sfseals@gmail.com).
