Academies for Players Born 2018-2019

Designed for players who were in U8 program in Fall 2025, YSYSL is partnering with the area competitive clubs to create Academies. They are a great way to build soccer skills and have some fun! Our academies are run by nationally US Soccer Federation coaches with curriculum designed for this age. Trainers for the February/March Academy are from Elite FC. 

Sessions will be Friday evenings on February 27, March 6, 13, & 20 for players born in years 2018-2019. The Academy is for skill development for new and returning YSYSL players and each session will focus on a different skill or area of the game. For more information about the Academy and who we are click here: About Our Academies

Follow the link below to register and the system will place your player in the appropriate age group. We are limiting enrollment to make sure attendees get a good experience; you may be placed on a waitlist. If so, you will not be charged unless your player is added to the session.

Registration for the February/March Academy: U8 Academy

YSYSL is moving to a new registration system. For instructions, see this page: YSYSL Registration Instructions

IMPORTANT: This does not register your player for the Spring 2025 or Fall 2026 YSYSL seasons. 

Players new to YSYSL will need to provide a proof of age (birth certificate, passport, etc.) solely for insurance reasons.

Please use the same email you used to sign up in fall; if you have not previously registered, use the link to set up an account

Information on more academies and camps will be posted soon.
