Stay Sharp Between Seasons

YOUTH ACADEMY OFFSEASON TRAINING

The Youth Academy is designed for players who want to keep improving outside of the regular fall and spring seasons. Our offseason training focuses on technical skills, agility, small-sided play, and building confidence with the ball. Whether your child is a first-time rec player or part of a travel team, the Academy provides extra touches, experienced coaching, and a fun environment that helps them take their game to the next level.

Keeping Players Safe

Safety First

Player safety is always our priority. All Youth Academy coaches complete background checks and follow age-appropriate training guidelines. Sessions are structured to keep players active and engaged while ensuring proper rest, hydration, and injury prevention.

How to Sign Up

Registration

Youth Academy registration is completed online through our secure third-party system. Families can easily select sessions, upload required documents, and sign up for training blocks. Spots are limited and often fill quickly, so early registration is encouraged.

Each player will need a water bottle, shorts of your choice, shin guards, and soccer cleats strongly recommended (no baseball or softball cleats). Team shirts will be provided to all players. Ball sizes vary by age group: U14 – size 5; U9 to U12 – size 4; U8 and under – size 3.
