Hello Arizona Soccer Association members!

Just because State Cup, Presidents Cup, and rec leagues aren't going on doesn't mean you can't be training at home and to help with this we would like to ensure that all our members are aware of our partnership with player development app TopTekkers (ages 5-14) and Techne Futbol (14 ). Learn more about these apps below.

TopTekkers

The mobile app, developed by the creators of The Coaching Manual, allows children aged 5-14 to practice their ‘Tekkers’, take on challenges, and record their scores. It also allows coaches and parents to view children’s activity, track their progress, and set them tailored training tasks. Coaches can set personal challenges or full individual development plans through the app for their players, who are rewarded for their progress. 

TopTekkers is packed with video tutorials featuring age-appropriate children, on skills like ball mastery, dribbling, passing, shooting, and more. Most of the challenges can be completed alone, and the rest can be done with a parent/partner. 

The technology is trusted by elite and grassroots clubs all over the world including Premier League teams Burnley and Sheffield United, and Chicago Fire of the MLS. To learn how TopTekkers can help you during this difficult period and beyond, contact sales@toptekkers.club.
