FGC Group Development

Structured Soccer Development in a Competitive Group Environment

FGC Group Development is a curriculum-driven training environment delivered through Coach Berenji’s methodology. Sessions are built to develop speed of play, decision-making under pressure, and composure in live problem-solving— the behaviors that transfer when the match accelerates.

Training operates on a weekly reserved slot model to protect consistency and group quality.

Built for the 90.

Group Development maintains the same standards and expectations as all FGC pathways.

Who Group Development Is For

Group Development is designed for athletes who benefit from shared tempo, competitive problem-solving, and decision-making in dynamic environments.

Best for athletes who

  • can maintain focus in group settings
  • learn through shared scenarios and competition
  • are consistent and coachable
  • want structured weekly development
  • can apply feedback within live play

Not the right fit if you

  • need constant individual correction
  • are inconsistent with attendance
  • struggle to stay engaged in groups
  • are not prepared for weekly standards-based training
  • are not ready for accountability

Group Development Format

Group sessions follow the same curriculum principles as individual pathways, applied through shared constraints and competitive scenarios.

Session Characteristics

  • small, controlled group sizes
  • curriculum-led session themes
  • decision-making under pressure
  • live problem-solving and adaptation
  • coach-led corrections within play

Training constraints are selected to force repeatable match behaviors—not isolated technique.

Curriculum Focus Areas

Sessions are built around the same development pillars used across the FGC system:
perception and scanning habits
first action and ball security
speed of play and decision-making
1v1 solutions (attack and defend)
timing and combination play
finishing and final-third execution
defensive behaviors and duels
composure and tempo control

Expectations and Standards

Group Development maintains the same standards as all FGC environments.

Consistency
Weekly commitment is required.

Coachability
Receive correction and apply it in the next rep and next phase of play.

Performance Standards
Tempo, scanning habits, and decision speed are non-negotiable.

Work Outside Training
Development is accelerated through work outside sessions.

Respect the Environment
Standards protect the quality of the group.
