2014 Boys Orange

Team Outlook from Coach Braxton

This is a new team joining FC Batavia in 2023, I’m excited to see how these boys work together on and off the field. Being a new team, we will face the challenges of a fresh start, but I believe these boys can handle it. We are looking forward to seeing the development and growth of these young players!

Playing Style

• Our playing style is based off of Dutch Total Soccer where we stress possession and continue to focus on ball mastery to increase confidence with the ball at our feet vs the feeling to just “kick it” whenever in trouble
• We value individual technique and skill, and start to introduce beginning concepts around formations, spacing and movements on the field
• We attack and defend as a team and put a focus on building out from the back and transition between offense-defense and defense-offense
