Hear From Your Coaches:

“I am excited to address the gap in player development that Calgary has been missing in recent years. This program has been a long-term goal of mine, aiming to provide players with a clear pathway to the NCAA, U SPORTS, and professional levels. The sessions will take place in top-tier facilities, focusing on high-quality technical training and key footballing details to create a positive and effective environment that prepares players for the next level of competition. 🙏”

— Niko Myroniuk: Director of Player Development

It’s (1UP Soccer) been good for me, especially during the offseason to refine little skills that I haven’t had to time to focus on during the season. And Graham (1UP Director) is always so diligent in his work and sessions. My favourite memory would be training with Victor and my brother last summer.

— Airbim Pepple: Profressional Player for Chesterfield United

“We are super excited to finally be able to offer this next step in our player development pathway. I hope that through this program we can create an environment that will allow our older players the best opportunity to take their game to the next level. As well as allowing them to be seen by coaches at a college/university level and beyond.”
