Why Speed, Agility & Quickness Training Matters in Youth Soccer Development

We recommend SAQ training for any player looking to improve their on-field performance and overall athletic foundation.

At Greenburgh United, we’re committed to developing the complete player—not just technically and tactically, but physically as well. That’s why we offer a specialized Supplemental Training Program focused on Speed, Agility, and Quickness (SAQ).

This program is ideal for players who want to elevate their athleticism, improve movement mechanics, and gain a competitive edge on the field. From U8s just starting their journey to more advanced players preparing for elite-level competition, SAQ training is one of the most impactful ways to level up.

Why SAQ Training?

  • Explosive Movement: Soccer is a game of acceleration, quick stops, and sharp direction changes. SAQ builds the power and footwork players need to dominate in these moments.

  • Faster Reactions: Through focused drills, players improve their ability to respond quickly and decisively under pressure.

  • Better Balance & Body Control: We incorporate fascia training, which targets the connective tissue network in the body to improve flexibility, posture, and fluid movement—essential for injury prevention and long-term development.

  • Total Athletic Development: These sessions support overall physical growth—speed, coordination, strength, and agility that translate across all sports.

Who Should Attend?

We recommend SAQ training for any player looking to improve their on-field performance and overall athletic foundation. Whether preparing for a travel team, seeking long-term development, or just wanting to move better, this program offers high-value, focused training.
