Forge365 — Athlete Application

This program is not for everyone. It is for the small percentage of athletes who are willing to train daily, embrace discomfort, and hold themselves to a higher standard. If that is you — apply below.

Section 1: Who Are You

Tell us about yourself.
Please enter a number from 8 to 19.

Section 2: Honest Self-Assessment

Rate yourself in each area. 1 = needs major work. 10 = world class. Be brutally honest — this is for you, not for us.
First step quickness, acceleration, change of direction
Receiving the ball cleanly under pressure, controlling in tight spaces
Dribbling in tight spaces, feints, changes of direction with the ball
Taking a player on, beating them, getting past a defender
Attacking, shooting, dribbling, and passing with your non-dominant foot
Striking the ball with power and placing it where you want
1-2 touch play, pass and move, reading the game quickly
Upper and lower body strength, core stability, ability to hold off opponents

Section 3: What Do You Believe

We need to know if you believe what we believe.
Ongoing regular training with the ball — and against opponents — will make me a better soccer athlete.(Required)
Training between practices is necessary if I want to improve.(Required)
Consistent practice over time produces improved skill and playing habits.(Required)
1 = Meh ... 10 = I would bet my life on it
If I trained with or against other skilled opponents in 1v1s, 2v2s, or 3v3s every week, this would make me a better player.(Required)

Section 4: Your Commitment

This is where most people stop reading. If you are still here, good.

A note about time. There is at least 30 minutes in your day where you can train. Nobody said it would be easy. The question is whether you will use it.

I will commit to the following daily training effort, over and above team practice:(Required)

Section 5: The Hard Questions

Check each box only if you mean it. Do not check it to look good. Check it because it is true.
Commitment Statements(Required)
You must check ALL boxes to be considered for the program.

The Forge365 Standard

Read this carefully. If this is you, check the box.

I accept that I will be placed on a training squad alongside athletes who share my commitment. Friends are welcome — but commitment is required. We are training warriors. We represent the small percentage who actually follow through, who show up when it is hard, and who hold each other to a standard most people will not reach. This is not for everyone. It is for us.

The Forge365 Standard(Required)

Not ready for this? No judgment. Forge365 is not going anywhere. When you are ready to commit, come back.
