Eastside Youth Academy is our "pre-competitive" bridge program between recreation and competitive soccer. The program is for players ages 7-10 (U8 to U10) who are looking for the highest level of play available for their age group. Similar to your child's school curriculum, Eastside's soccer curriculum is based on an understanding of children's developmental abilities and needs. The Youth Academy teams make a 12-month commitment to the club and must purchase the required training kit and game uniform.

Are there tryouts?

Player evaluations take place in conjunction with competitive program tryouts in early May. Evaluations are free, but players are asked to pre-register online. We make an effort to accommodate as many players as possible given they are physically, mentally, and socially prepared for the demands of the program.

Whats the cost?

Eastside Youth Academy costs $975 if paid in full, or $1,050 if you elect to choose a payment plan.

Who are the coaches?

All of the coaches in our Youth Academy program are paid staff coaches. They are dedicated to developing young players and focused on providing positive learning experiences to all players in the program.
