Academy Soccer Programs
Our Academy Soccer Programs are aimed at players who aspire to play soccer at the highest level possible and is offered to players by invitation following both internal and external tryouts.
Union FC™ Academy Programs are split into three divisions, Pre-Academy & Junior/Youth Academy Development, Junior Academy and Youth Academy, with players then graduating to our U21 Program.
Pre-Academy & Junior/Youth Academy Development is aimed at players between the ages of 4 & 16, selected from our Grassroots & Recreational programs who possess high technical ability.
Junior Academy provides technical developmental environment for players at the U8 – U12 age groups where players learn the core dynamics of the game starting at 5v5, 7v7 and 9v9 game models before moving onto full 11v11 soccer.
Youth Academy soccer, is where our players transition to full-side 11v11 soccer, providing high performance competitive soccer for players aged between the U13 – U18 age groups. Youth Academy players will compete at a high level with the aim to developing players who will go on earn College Scholarships and play at a collegiate level.
