The FC Salmon Creek U8-10 Academy Program is for players that are interested in playing at a higher level of club soccer than what Recreational soccer offers. Players are required to try out at the beginning of each soccer season and selected players will be placed onto teams for their age. The Academy is also open to younger players who meet the physical/psychological demands and the technical standards of our program. Our intent is to provide a competitive but not exclusive environment for these developing youngsters. The Academy Program will focus on all components of the game: technical, tactical, psychological, & physical. The training sessions are geared towards maximizing the player’s growth & technical development of every player. Our program runs from June through May.
