Youth Development Program

Program Details

Our Youth Development Program (YDP) is for our younger athletes. The program is a developmental program, meaning the focus is on age appropriate, soccer-specific, skill-building, fun, and fostering a passion for soccer. All sessions are led by our professional training staff. Sessions are generally Play - Practice - Play on weekday evenings and small-sided games and 7v7 games on Saturday mornings.



With the YDP registration, you will choose 1 or 2 weekday evening to attend and everyone plays on Saturday morning. Your choice of weekdays is Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays for practice and your child will attend the same day each week. YDP is an 8-week program, with 16 sessions or 24 if you choose 3 days a week weather permitted. We also have a program for kids who have special needs called TOPSoccer Program. 


Special Note to our multiple sports participants:

We encourage all parents who are interested in registering their children to register even if they do not know their schedule to date. If you register and then need to adjust your schedule, please contact us and we will accommodate your request where possible if you cannot adjust your schedule for another event.
