WHAT SETS US APART

SNFC Pride aka “Lionesses” is a Sparks, NV- based U13 competitive girl’s youth soccer team comprised of players born in 2012 / 2011 . Our Team Philosophy is based on "holistic player development", both on and off the soccer field. We strive to develop the girls into strong players and even stronger young women.  We are a high-level competitive team that will compete throughout Nevada, California, and Nationally.

COACHING PHILOSOPHY

  • I will help my players develop a passion for the game by providing them with the tools they need to play the game successfully, in a positive and safe environment.

  • I will emphasize development of the technical, tactical, mental, physical and social areas of the game, with the long-term goal of producing well-rounded, complete soccer players by helping each individual player to reach her potential. 

  • I will allow players to play a variety of positions on the field, and will give them the freedom to be creative, to make mistakes, and to solve some problems for themselves.

  • I will resist the temptation to sacrifice the health, safety, and long-term development of the player for the short-term goal of winning games. I believe that if a coach commits to player development, the winning will take care of itself.

  • I will strive to create a positive environment that validates the self-worth of each player and engenders a lifelong love for the game.

  • I will listen to my players and parents, treat them with respect at all times, and be receptive to constructive advice.

  • I consider building the character of the person just as important as developing the skills of the player. I will teach my players through my words and actions the values of integrity, personal courage, respect, resilience, empathy, teamwork and sportsmanship that will benefit them long after their youth soccer days are over.
