NSC Winter At Home
Welcome to NSC At Home! Our virtual training platform was created as a response to COVID and the cancelled Spring 2020 season as a way to offer access to FREE online content and live sessions you can do right from the comfort and safety of home!
Due to the warm response, positive feedback and the ongoing pandemic we will once again be turning to our “NSC At Home” platform as a way to help give our development hungry players a place to do just that this Winter via our “Virtual Ball Mastery Academy”!
What is the “Virtual Ball Mastery Academy”?
Beginning on January 4th & 6th 2021, our “Virtual Ball Mastery Academy” will be run by NSC Director of Coaching & Revolution Academy Technical Coordinator Matt Murray. The goal of this program is to provide NSC players of all levels with an opportunity to improve their comfort, confidence and ultimately their ability to manipulate the ball at their feet.
With “Intro Sessions” on Monday afternoons designed for more basic ball mastery and footwork skills to help new and beginning players develop their fundamentals. Progressing into our “Advanced Sessions” on Wednesday afternoon’s (building off of the basics from Monday) all NSC players will have an opportunity to challenge themselves and improve their game from the comfort and safety of home this winter!
All sessions will run approximately 30 minutes and have separate times for Boys and Girls. Beginning in March, we will move to 1 session a week on Wednesdays with Girls Sessions kicking off at 3:15pm & Boys Sessions kicking off at 4:15pm on both days!
Players are encouraged to participate in every session regardless of where you think you are in your development and relationship with the ball. The only thing you need to be successful here is a Positive, Growth Oriented Mindset!! Embrace the new challenges with an understanding that in order to get better you MUST be uncomfortable with making mistakes!!
The Live sessions are open to the first 100 participants that log in on a first come first serve basis! However ALL sessions are recorded and will be available online 24 hours after via our new Needham Soccer Club TV YouTube Channel!

Players should be laced up, waiting & ready to go! Participant audio will be muted on arrival, but be sure to enable video (if you can) so that players can all see & feed off one another. Use the Zoom “chat” function if you wish to send any messages to the group/coach.
Our Winter 2021 Virtual Ball Mastery Academy will move to 1 Session on Wednesdays Starting in MARCH!! Players of ALL levels are welcome and encouraged to join. These sessions will be more “advanced” in nature as we focus to challenge players who have participated in our program all winter long.
