Mission 11U Gold

Team Profile

This will be a brand new team with 11 spots open for players born in 2011 or 2012. The goal of this team is to create the most competitive 11U/12U team possible, develop the talent in these players and make it an amazing experience. Players on this team will form a winning culture based on respect, love of training and commitment to process in order to build results next Summer. Most importantly we will focus on what we can control - which is creating a positive environment for girls to try, fail, dust themselves off and feel good about continuing that process.

This team will be built on defense and the ability to move the ball around in space and control the game.
