The revolutionary training and development program designed for footballers looking to #ACHIEVEMASTERY in their game and of their mind.

All started with a 2010 group that believed in the vision.

Some spent most of their development here, others turned up at different chapters with different needs.

Humbled to be able to play a role on their journeys and see them get what they deserve.

Proud of my boys, not just the ones that signed, but all of the ones that played a role in building an environment where we not only developed some of the best,

but where the best from the outside knew they could come to *keep growing. They were attracted here by the body of work done over the last 6 years.

This is one roster. Meaning everyone on that team was able to sharpen themselves against top competition, day in day out.

Every training session was against some of the best players in the country.

Not a single badge in sight, just proper NPL Demons 😅

6 MLS academy players (and that’s only the domestic signings announced) within a roster of 12-13 players.

The work doesn’t change, just the jersey 🫡❤️🖤

“Technique isn’t juggling the ball 1000 times. Technique is hitting the ball first time, to the correct foot, for the quick kick in to catch them sleeping and tie up the game with 3 mins left”

- Cruyff

2015s tie it up then win the match ❤️🖤

2013 ❤️🖤 SilvaBall

At this point you know what to expect 🙂 this is what a training and playing methodology looks like. Same as the 2010s, 2012s, and 2015s.

When you zoom out, it’s always about the bigger picture.

What I see:

Understanding of principles, time, space.

Receiving the ball with correct body shape, with either foot, with intention in relation to space.

Growing understanding off-the-ball in order to effect the ball carrier. Movements to collaborate, not just movements to receive the ball.

Composure on the ball and technical executions to break pressure.

The ability and growing decision making to eliminate a player on the dribble

And most importantly, an ability to interpret situations collectively, not using touches for the sake of using touches, but consistently “solving”. This isn’t a “system” (a word that frauds use as a cop out to justify an inability to teach)

-
It’s the same thing I see in all of my teams. Win or lose, we will always have another chance at the “competition” side of this sport,

But the most important part, which is evident by our growing success rate with professional academies, is that our players are being well equipped to thrive when they LEAVE the program.

They have a technical “bag” and IQ able to mold and adapt to their next environment, which is whole point right?

Silva Select is just a small step in their longer journey. As a humble servant to their development, it’s about prepping them for what comes next and the standard with which they’ll be held to, not about reactionary decisions to win a piece of plastic from Trophies Express
