Each winter, Tormenta FC Academy proudly offers our Regional Development Schools (RDS) across Hardeeville, Hilton Head, Savannah, and Statesboro, as we continue expanding into new communities and providing every player with access to high-quality development opportunities.
The Winter Training program runs for three weeks in December and three weeks in January, with a holiday break in between, giving players and staff time to focus on family while staying connected to the game. The program is designed to help all players continue developing their technical skills, maintain a strong touch on the ball, and enter the spring season confident and prepared.
In addition to regular training sessions, Tormenta FC Academy will also host Sunday Pickup Games open to players from all RDS locations. These games provide a fun, competitive opportunity for players to stay sharp, apply what they’ve learned, and enjoy the game alongside peers from across the region.
Led by experienced, licensed coaches, each session focuses on improving ball control, sharpening attacking and defending techniques, and building stronger game awareness. The goal is to ensure every player, regardless of club or experience level, grows in their understanding and execution of the game.
Our Regional Development Schools are open to players from all clubs, fostering collaboration across South Georgia and the South Carolina Lowcountry. Through a combination of technical skill training, small-sided play, and tactical instruction, RDS creates a positive, challenging environment where every player can grow, succeed, and strengthen their love for soccer.
