The John Jay Summer Soccer Program is designed for rising 10th through 12th graders who are serious about competing at the Varsity level. This is not a recreational program—it’s an opportunity for dedicated players to elevate their game through structured Summer Training and competitive, Varsity level Summer League matches. If your goal is just to "play in some games," then this program simply is not for you. That mindset reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of its purpose—to develop and prepare players for the upcoming high school fall soccer season. Summer Training sessions take place at John Jay High School on both turf and grass fields, focusing on speed, agility, and fitness, along with technical ball work, tactical concepts, and small-sided, possession-oriented games. Summer League Games are held at Lakeland High School and Ossining High School.

The John Jay Winter Soccer Program has been designed to help players maintain and elevate both their fitness and skills during the offseason. It is designed for serious soccer players who are looking to improve themselves ahead of next year's school soccer season; it is not recreation. Each session includes one hour of fast-paced, small-sided games, focusing on possession-oriented play to enhance technical ability and decision-making. Additionally, either before (for John Jay students) or after (for Van Wyck students) their hour of play, players will participate in strength training in the weight room with Coach Axelson, aimed at building physical strength, endurance, and injury resilience.

The John Jay Soccer Speed & Agility Clinic, led by Track & Field Coach Brent DeVittorio and the John Jay Soccer coaching staff, focuses on refining running technique, preventing injuries, and enhancing speed and agility. This program equips players with the skills and efficiency needed to move with precision and perform at their best.

Our goal is to reduce injuries by improving running mechanics. The John Jay Soccer Program has dealt with preventable hamstring, calf, and quadriceps injuries due to poor technique. Coach DeVittorio’s sessions will help athletes develop efficient, biomechanically sound movement, minimizing strain on muscles and joints. Through targeted drills and corrective exercises, players will enhance speed, stability, and durability on the field.
