Once a year, IMG Academy will be offering <strong>CAG</strong> coaches and athletes ages 8-18 speciality sport clinics of our<br />

choice as part our new partnership. For this school year, the Athletic Director with the support of the Booster<br />

Club chose soccer. The clinics are designed and runned by IMG and their coaching staff. IMG Academy has over<br />

35 years of elite training experience, with a methodology that addresses all technical and tactical aspects of<br />

the game to facilitate total athletic development. They have helped shape some of the best soccer players in<br />

the United States for more than 20 years, and was home to U16 and U17 men’s national teams.<br />

We had the pleasure of having three amazing IMG soccer coaches come<br />

work with us. Rusty Scarborough, Director of the Soccer Program at IMG.<br />

Miguel Rodrigues, Director of Soccer Summer Camps and Alexander Chater,<br />

U19 National Elite Coach.<br />

It was a three day clinic for all our coaching staff and a two day clinic for our soccer<br />

players. On the field, athletes got cutting-edge training in performance elements to<br />

improve strength, agility and endurance. Off the field, they worked on confidence, team work,<br />

nutrition and overall health. They shared information with athletes and coaches of what the<br />

scholarship and college playing process is like and what it takes to get in, as well as the<br />

importance of good academic planning and development. Clinics included hydration and food.<br />

Both coaches and athletes enjoyed healthy and delicious meals and snacks. All participants<br />

received a diploma and gift at the awards ceremony. IMG gifted the overall MVP winner with a<br />

one week summer camp certificate.<br />

COMING SOON……<br />

Booster Club is already planning the next school year’s clinic, all teams<br />

will have the opportunity to particpate. Don’t miss it.. GO HORNETS!!!
