“My Daughter loves soccer and has learned many skills. She loves all the coaches and can’t wait to return next season.”

— Soccer Mom

EPS' Philosophy is to create a happy, healthy and fun environment that allows each player to grow as a positive human being, student and soccer player. Our focus is teaching the Fundamentals of soccer in a positive environment that emphasizes creativity. EPS focuses on building a strong relationship with the ball. Each session will be high in energy, fun, and have positive coaching. EPS coaches will encourage players to express themselves and make their own decisions.

A coach can be one of the most influential people in a player’s life, so EPS requires they create a positive experience for every player in EPS. Additionally, encouraging player’s effort leads to greater enjoyment, improved skills and stronger motivation in players.
We strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude, and our programs are designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of EPS.
All players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
EPS’s goal is for kids to play soccer, so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least 50 percent of every game, providing they have made every required team session.
