Transcript
Global Premier Soccer (GPS) has 10 franchises, anchored by the headquarters in Massachusetts. Each franchise produce players using the same development model that includes GPS Juniors, GPS Trainers, the GPS School of Excellence (SOE) Programs and the GPS Premier Team Program.
GPS HQ provides back-office support in key administrative areas such as curriculum development and marketing allowing each franchise to focus on developing players. All franchises utilize a consistent curriculum methodology providing an age appropriate method of learning at each stage of their development.
In 2012, GPS and AS Roma launched a unique partnership to identify and develop US based players who have the potential to make the move to Roma.
Roma’s commitment to the US market Includes the following;
Commitment to player identification – AS Roma and GPS have launched Roma USA Academies in multiple states at no cost to the players identified to participate.
Inner City Programming – GPS and Roma provide free programming in at-risk communities to identify and provide opportunities to those players who otherwise might not have been identified as a future star.
Disney Partnership – Roma is the presenting sponsor for all tournaments held at ESPN Wide World of Sports and recently spent the Serie A winter break on the Disney campus.
GPS can provide an unparalleled administrative support network to develop your club including operations, curriculum development, sports performance, sales & marketing, recruiting, finance, graphic design, communications and media/public relations.
Program Development is an important part of what GPS can provide, specifically a grass roots effort designed to grow player numbers aged 11 and below using our GPS Juniors, School of Excellence and Junior Premier Programming. These programs will work in conjunction with your existing infrastructure at these ages.
The GPS/adidas partnership represents a comprehensive and collaborative relationship that provides a unique set of benefits.
The player development process outlined in the GPS curriculum affords adidas the ability to position GPS as one of the top talent producing clubs in the country and provides a platform on which national and international partnerships can be established.
Additionally, any and all partner or affiliate clubs of GPS are entitled to comprehensive support from the brand. This support covers both product, administrative and coaching needs.
Lastly, in conjunction with key club partners such as GPS, adidas is currently developing a holistic GA (generation adidas) program that expands the current footprint and evaluation process of the current GA program.
The Challenge
Economically disadvantaged neighborhoods have not had access to premier soccer training services. This has contributed to lack of opportunities for inner-city soccer players
The Program
GPS has successfully launched programs in un-tapped soccer communities in every state we are active.
The Future
GPS develop inner-city initiatives with each of our club partners with the support of AS Roma. Inner city locations have high appreciation and passion for soccer given large immigrant ties to soccer loving geographic regions.
Leagues and Tournaments
Global Premier Soccer has 6 years experience in running successful leagues and tournaments in multiple states. GPS was a co-founder of the New England Premiership (NEP), which is now the preeminent Premier League in the Northeast. The NEP was established with a focus on supporting the player development happening at the top clubs in New England with minimum standards detailed for coaches, facilities and administrative support.
GPS operates over 25 tournaments including two major College Showcase events in the GPS Memorial Day Showcase and the GPS Thanksgiving Showcase. These events have been instrumental in providing numerous players with opportunities at some of the top colleges in the country. Both tournaments regularly host over 200 college coaches each.
