Academy Juniors League – Ages 3-12
The Academy Juniors League provides a fun, safe, and developmentally appropriate environment for young players to come to learn the game of soccer through training and gameplay. We help players aged 3 to 12 (11-12 year olds only in Oldham) grow in the sport by introducing them to formalized weekend game-play in addition to weekly training sessions.
Participants practice once per week in sessions facilitated by paid coaches and supported by Academy Directors. Our specialized curriculum helps players grow their technical skills and apply these skills in age-appropriate game-day environments.
- Game Days (ONLY for 5-12 year olds) are the same time each Saturday:
- 5-6s – 8:00-9:00am
- 7-8s – 9:30-10:30am

- 11-12s – 10:30-11:30am or 11:30-12:30pm (OLDHAM ONLY)

Academy Juniors Summer Playmaker Technical Skills – Ages 4-14
This is a standalone program, separate from the recreational Academy Juniors League. It does not involve team formation or Saturday games. Instead, this six-week training series is designed for young players who want to sharpen their skills and get more touches on the ball in a focused, supportive setting.
Training takes place in small groups to maximize individual attention and player development. Each 50-minute session combines fun, age-appropriate soccer activities with small-sided games to build both technical ability and tactical awareness.
Program Dates:
- Fall I: August 22-September 26
- Fall II: October 10-November 21
Format: 1 session per week | 6 total sessions / $96/player
