Academy Teams
AFC Juniors Academy Program
The Aces Futbol Academy Program is an additional component to the AFC Select program. Academy maintains the philosophy that soccer is a sport that players should experience and enjoy. The Aces Futbol Academy creates a soccer environment that will help players gain appropriate training/objectives and passion for soccer beyond their playing years. These environments should allow players creativity, problem solving and experimentation in a natural way that places players in situations within their physical, intellectual reach. Players will develop by learning skills and strategies at age appropriate levels and benefit from the teaching philosophy of experienced soccer professionals.
Academy teams are formed at U5 – U10 age groups and are coached and trained by our AFC Academy staff.
Practices occur twice per week along with optional weekly skills sessions. In addition, the teams have a parent volunteer team manager who coordinates the administrative efforts. AFC Academy staff coaches lead on-the-field responsibilities and work closely with the team manager on administrative duties.
Aces Futbol Academy players will have the opportunity to play against other developmental teams from the surrounding area.
