Frequently Asked Questions

 

• What is the difference between Academy and Recreational Division?

Academy uses age-appropriate lesson plans and maximize touches on the ball through drills and games. The Academy players are not assigned to teams and participate in group practices. Games/scrimmages are organized by skill level to ensure all players get involved. Academy relies on parent coaches to help with practices and games. Practices are once or twice a week depending on age group with games on Friday nights. Players in the academy division are NOT required to purchase uniforms.
Recreational division is the traditional division in which the players are assigned to a specific team based on birth year (not school year).  They practice twice a week with games typically on Saturdays.  The practice schedule is determined by the individual coaches assigned to each recreational team.
