The course will be hosted by the Oklahoma Premier Clubs. At its highest level of programming, the Oklahoma Premier Clubs contributes to the Red River NPL, a newly formed league member for the 2017-18 NPL season. The Oklahoma Premier Clubs consists of seven clubs: NEOFC, Oklahoma Celtic, River Valley FC, South Lakes SC, Stillwater Apex FC, TSC Hurricane and West Side Alliance.

“Getting in-depth exposure into the modern LaLiga methodology is a unique opportunity for our Oklahoma Premier Clubs coaching staff,” said Jim Tindell, Executive Director of TSC Hurricane. “Learning the methodology that has been adopted by some of the world’s most renowned clubs first hand is truly unprecedented and supports our mission of raising the game. We are excited to be able to bring this course to our Oklahoma Premier Clubs coaches, as well as other coaches in the country.  Investing in coaching education is a critical component of the Oklahoma Premier Clubs platform.”

The league was formed based on four primary platforms:

• Competition
• Player Identification
• Club, Coach and Referee Development
• US Club Soccer’s Players First

LaLiga Formation Methodology is a staple of US Club Soccer’s Players First initiative, which is a branded, holistic club soccer experience for parents and players, emphasizing the development of each individual to his or her full potential, and helping parents make better choices about where their children should play.
