- One practice + weekend games
Foundations is the first step on the Blaze pathway. It is for players who are still building confidence with the ball and learning the fundamentals, in a smaller group of players of like skill and ability.
Training is built on small-sided games and dynamic sessions that develop coordination, comfort on the ball and game awareness — and it stays fun, because that is what keeps a seven-year-old coming back.
Who it is for
- Players in the U8–U10 age groups who want more than one practice a week
- Kids who are new to structured training
- Families who want the Blaze experience with less travel
How it fits with Blaze
Foundations and Blaze Academy are the club’s two academy tracks, for players at different skill levels. Each has its own registration. If you aren’t sure which suits your player, ask the club’s Academy Director.
Joining
Foundations runs as one season from August through May, with a single registration on GotSport. The uniform package (home and away kits and a practice jersey) is bought separately.
Payment plans and scholarships are available — see the hardship form on the Forms & Documents page.
