At Orix we have a simple philosophy "more teaching less coaching".
Our training programs are designed to develop the individual player technically, tactically and mentally.  We generally do not assess players based on their age but rather on their playing level and soccer IQ. The listed age categories are mainly for league compliance purposes, therefore players may be placed on older aged teams based on their current ability level.  It is common place to see players in our programs playing up 1 to 2 age groups on any given match day. We believe this is the best way to achieve accelerated development and prepare players for elite level soccer beyond youth play.

U15 Program (2006 or younger)

Training Program & Academy Team

The training program provides 2 training sessions per week and competitive league matches year round. From September to March our program participants train indoors and from April to August training moves to grass or turf fields. 

Our U15 Academy Team plays competitive matches in the British Columbia Academy Super League (bcasl.com) from September to December and from April to August.  Players who perform at a high level on this team may be called up to play matches with older Orix Academy teams to gain more experience.

Goalkeeper Training

The modern day goalkeeper is very much an outfield player. Orix Soccer Academy incorporates our goalkeepers in the training sessions to ensure they develop the skills required to play the position effectively in today’s game. Individual goalkeeper training is also provided for goalkeepers.

Tryouts

Orix does not conduct open tryouts. Any player can request an individual tryout at any point in the program year at no cost. The player will be invited to train with the program for 2-4 weeks before a decision is made.

Players who are not selected can request another tryout after 2 months. To request a tryout see Tryout Request Form below.
