The foundation of success for the New York Red Bulls Youth Programs is a well-developed, thorough curriculum that develops players in all aspects of the game. The curriculum caters to players ages 3 to 18 and consists of over 700 activities that are available to partner organizations in a written format. Select activities are also supported with video files.
The curriculum specifically identifies five key developmental levels, each level clearly defined by a separate building block. Activities are also tagged by topic, age, ability and learning outcomes. Coaches can search for activities based on a player’s stage of learning and add their favorite activities into their own personal library.
