For any 2014 players (Boys & Girls) still looking for a Spring team!

⚽ 2014 BOYS & GIRLS – SPRING ROSTER SPOTS AVAILABLE

The GOAT Farm Soccer Academy is hosting Open Player Evaluations for a limited number of remaining roster spots on our 2014 Girls and new 2014 Boys County teams this Spring.

Evaluations will take place during our Thursday team training sessions on:

📅 March 19
📅 March 26
📅 April 2

Players will attend a team training session for evaluation, and training times will be assigned based on the Boys or Girls session.

Our Spring season begins soon and league games start April 10, so roster spots are limited.

Players interested in attending an evaluation can register here:

ACCELERATION IS A SKILL — AND MOST ATHLETES NEVER TRAIN IT.

Here are 5 simple acceleration variations we use at The GOAT Lab to help athletes develop:

• A better projection angle
• Stronger first step
• Faster ground contacts
• Game-ready reaction speed

These starts challenge different parts of the acceleration sequence:

1️⃣ Chest Start → Teaches aggressive forward projection
2️⃣ Plank Climbers → Builds rhythm + drive through the hips
3️⃣ Knee-Up Lean → Reinforces proper forward shin angle
4️⃣ Jump Back Start → Adds a reactive elastic component
5️⃣ Chase Start → Game-transfer. Compete. React. WIN.

This athlete is NEW to sprint mechanics — but this is exactly how you build speed:

Start where you are. Train the fundamentals. Repeat.

If your athlete wants to get faster, stronger, more confident, our Complimentary Athlete Analysis is the first step.

Speed doesn’t change all at once —
it changes in small, consistent gains.

And in sports, a 1% improvement is everything:

One step faster.

One step earlier.

One step that decides whether you’re caught… or gone.

Don’t be the one left behind this spring.

Our January Speed Phase is built to stack those gains week after week —
mechanics, acceleration, power, and speed you can measure.

Athlete Analyses are happening all December
so every athlete enters January with a clear plan and real numbers.

Every athlete improves faster when they know their numbers.

Data creates clarity. Clarity creates improvement.

We test the key speed performance metrics:

📏 Top Speed (Max Velocity)
⚡ Acceleration (0–5m, 0–10m performance)
🧭 Change of Direction (COD efficiency)
💥 Power & Explosiveness (jump profile, force output)

Each one matters — and together they build the full speed profile.

Your Complimentary Athlete Analysis happens in December,
so your athlete enters the January Speed Phase with a clear plan and measurable baseline.

Most athletes run hard…

but run inefficiently.

The 3 biggest sprint mistakes we see:

1️⃣ Heel striking → brakes your acceleration
2️⃣ Standing tall too early → lose horizontal force
3️⃣ Weak arm drive → no rhythm or speed

Fix these → get faster.

Most athletes never learn how.

We’re completing Athlete Analyses all December
to prepare players for the January Speed Phase.

Speed doesn’t start on the field —
it starts with strength.

Athletes who can push the ground harder
accelerate faster. Period.

Inside the January Speed Phase, we build:

💥 Sprint-specific strength
💥 Explosive power
💥 Posture + stiffness
💥 Injury resistance

Athlete Analyses happening all December.

January Speed Phase begins soon.

Your speed starts in the first 5 steps.

That’s where acceleration is built — and where most athletes lose power.

Poor mechanics =
❌ wasted energy
❌ slower times
❌ higher injury risk

At The GOAT Lab, we break down your form using:

📊 Data + video analysis
🏃‍♂️ Sprint mechanic correction
💥 Acceleration drills
🧠 Progressive speed sequencing

The Winter Speed Lab begins this December,
and athletes who start earlier in the phase see the biggest improvements.

🎯 Rolling enrollment — limited weekly spots

You’re not slow — you’ve just never trained speed properly.

Most athletes only run… but running alone doesn’t make you faster.

Training speed does.

Our Winter Speed Lab (Faster by Spring) kicks off this December.

And athletes who start earlier in the phase see the fastest progress,

because speed is built through:

🏃‍♂️ Proper sprint mechanics
⚡ Strength for speed
🔁 Consistent, structured training
📈 Measurable tracking + data feedback

If you want to be faster by spring:

🎯 Start with your Complimentary Athlete Analysis
🎯 Athletes accepted on a rolling basis
🎯 Limited spots available each week

Speed is a skill. Not a gift.

And like any skill, it can be trained.

That’s what we do at The GOAT Lab — Winter Speed Lab: Faster by Spring.
