Fortitude Soccer Institute will introducing small group training for U11 – U19 players this summer!

All training sessions will be lead by Josh Beaty at Gates South Soccer Complex in Centennial Colorado starting June 1st!

While FSI is primarily a coaching resource page, training players is an essential part of coaching.

The small group training at FSI will focus around decision-making and technical repetition in game scenario environments. The use of 4 to 6 players will allow them to compete against their peers and have to deal with the reality of what they will deal with in games. The use of 4 to 6 players allows for competitive environments as well.

Fortitude Soccer Institute started off as the name for a potential new soccer club. But Fortitude Soccer Institute is not a soccer club.

FSI is a place for soccer people to try to learn something new. It will be full of different articles and resources focused on many different aspects of the game. We will focus our attention on helping coaches build relationships with their players and parents, how to handle different situations, view and critically think about the game they are watching and many other topics.

Think of FSI as a place to go to go deep into different topics that will help coaches become better for their players, help players understand the process and what is most important in development and enjoyment and finally where parents can come to learn more about the youth soccer landscape and how to partner with their club.

Why the lion? A lion symbolizes strength and courage and fortitude is the mental and emotional strength, courage, and resilience that allows a person to endure pain, danger, or adversity calmly and patiently. Fortitude is a key quality for any player, parent or coach. Being able to deal with adversity is a key skill for anyone to possess.
