ERIE FC Gunners Summer

Erie FC Gunners

U5 – U9 Players

Skill Development + Game Play

ERIE FC begins with the Gunners program designed for players U5, U6, U7, U8. Our professional staff will provide age-appropriate technical instruction in a training environment featuring exciting games and skill activities. The summer program features weekly training sessions that combine skill development and game play.

ERIE FC Gunners is open to all players regardless of current skill level or previous playing experience. Players will be placed into proper training groups based on age, skill level, and soccer experience. Training focuses on the development of individual soccer skills, which is necessary for success once players move into the competitive team environment at U9 and beyond.

The program runs for 8-weeks in the summer (June – August), and players may choose one or two practices per week.
