SESSION IV- U16 RCC TRAINING

The U16 Regional Club Championship (RCCs) will take place June 1st and June 2nd at College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA.

RCCs feature the best of the best from our region (New England). Each club invites their top athletes in each age group to compete at this intense and highly competitive tournament!

This is our last recruiting showcase we will attend in the 2024 Coastal season. RCCs has a large college presence and attendance to watch the best players out of New England compete.

Training will begin Tuesday April 23rd and end Thursday May 30th (full schedule below). The team will train two nights a week. The total training hours in Session IV- U16 RCC Training will be 24 hours. This time together over the next 6 weeks is crucial to prepare as a team to bring our best roster forward June 1 & 2. We will not only continue the stick and ball skills of individual players, but shift more focus onto the 11v11 strategy of the game. We will focus on the 11v11 structure, roles, positions, press, corner plays, outlet structure, circle play, and Coastal core principles of play to best prepare to compete against the toughest competition in our region.

We will train as a larger group and two weeks prior to the tournament we will select and notify 18-20 roster spots for tournament weekend. The remaining spots will be named alternates.

RCCs is not an equal playing time tournament. The club is competing to win and be placed at the highest ranking.

There will be a separate link sent to those players with the tournament payment and details.

The USAFH Regional Club Championships schedule is not typically released until one week out from the event. Additional tournament details will be distributed as soon as we receive them.
