Alliance Junior Academy Soccer Program Is for Players (3-6 Years Old)
Alliance Junior Academy Program is for younger athletes, that are looking for a positive introduction to the game of soccer, with emphasis on fun. Academy practices are run by professional trainers, current older Alliance Soccer Club players & Alliance SC Alum, alongside the volunteer parents, overseen by the Academy Director. Games are played on Saturdays and are run by parent volunteers with guidance from the Academy Director of Coaching. This program implements an age specific curriculum and provides players with the opportunity to learn and develop the foundations of the sport of soccer.
We will not have any rescheduling due to weather cancellations. Instead, we have extended the program from 8 weeks to 9 weeks long and built in a few additional Sunday games.
