Please scroll down for ALL information

Our Team programs are for 2009-2000 birth year players who desire qualified coaching, a high level of competition, and an atmosphere that allows them to reach their potential and achieve their individual goals in the game. Players who participate in this level of Competitive soccer will need to be prepared to make a significant commitment to soccer training and competition.

Our Junior Academy for younger players is open to all, with no Tryouts. It is a full year program with once per week training during the Fall, Winter and Spring. Program is enhanced with several inter-program tournament games .
The program is designed specifically for players who will be looking to transition to the premier teams the following year. The focus is exclusively on player development.
