Age Restrictions

Program placement is based on the player’s gender and birth year. Please see the available age groups, organized by season, below.

Team Formation
Players will be placed on gender-specific teams based on their residential district/school location. Other factors in team placement include date of registration and any special request made by parents. Players will be contacted by mid-August for Fall play and mid-March for Spring play, by their assigned coach, with seasonal information. Please contact the Jr Academy Registrar with any questions or concerns in regards to team formation.

Session Format
The first half of each session is devoted to skills and the second half of each session consists of a coach-facilitated scrimmage against another team at your location. These scrimmages are usually 4 vs 4 or 3 v 3 on a small field, with the coaches serving as referees and also teaching the basic rules of the game. At this age group, we are introducing the concepts of field boundaries, passing, shooting and teamwork.

Uniform / Equipment
Coaches will distribute an Under Armour jersey and socks to players. No shorts are provided. Parents are expected to provide for their children: shorts, a size 3 soccer ball, a quart size water bottle, shin guards, and appropriate footwear (soccer cleats are optional).
