The NRU Travel Program serves youth soccer players that wish a more competitive program than that found in the area's recreational programs. The Program offers advanced individual training and team training utilizing paid soccer coaches and area soccer professionals. Individual and team development is emphasized in an environment that strives to develop a love for the game of soccer under the rules of good sportsmanship. The Program also employs a "Technical Director" whose primary responsibility is to see that the level of coaching is appropriate for the age being coached and that team coaches are proficient for the age with which they are involved.
