What's Happening In And Around Stars Academy
Your Stars Academy Player Of The Month
In July, all of our academy teams returned to action. The first two weeks of the month featured the Academy’s most competitive trial period to date, while the following two weeks set the standard for the season to come. Our amazing athletes, with their effort and enthusiasm, raised the level of training to new heights. However, one athlete, due to their dedication in July and their journey over the past few seasons, has been crowned YOUR July Player of the Month!
Hank Burket began his Stars Academy journey a few seasons ago with our 2015 Academy B Team. Hank shined in this role, strengthening his technical skills and understanding of the game in an environment specifically designed for development. His progress was swift, leading to several call-ups during his first season with the 2015 Academy A Team before making the move permanent the following season. Hank has now become a mainstay on the 2015 Academy A Team and, based on his hard work and determination this past month, is one of just two 2015 Academy players selected to assist the 2014 Academy A Team at their upcoming tournament.
"Hank is one of the hardest-working athletes in our entire academy. His constant effort and determination to always improve, especially this past month, have rightfully earned him the Player of the Month spot." - Coach Conner
Congratulations, Hank!
