Philosophy: The Hollywood Wildcats Elite Travel Program is modeled after the mixed od Eurepeon and the Americas Club Systems. It first a community of players, parents, coaches that work together to create a safe, healthy, and enjoyable place to learn and grow as athletes. We are the only member of the Florida Youth Soccer Association (FYSA) in Hollywood and part of the FIFA. We follow each player from the moment they register in the Wildcats Soccer Club in any of our programs. They are continually assessed for improvement and placed according to their needs. We pride ourselves in keeping communication open with parents so as to better develop the person and the athlete. The Elite Travel Program is central to our philosophy since most of the participating players will be in the program from 8 years old until they graduate from high school. The bond created between players, parents and staff during these formative years is strengthened by the successful development of each individual player. We are dedicated to making them reach their maximum potential.
