Academy Style Training at a fraction of the price!

All of our academy teams train year round.  Seasonal training is typically 3 nights per week.  Academy teams participate in anywhere from 4 to 20 tournaments a year depending on the team and age group.  Our professional coaches and trainers provide a high level curriculum in a fun “academy style” environment.

Training at Elite FC

A training session at Elite FC often resembles a “soccer camp” because our sessions are pre-set and usually consist of 8-12 drills per session, broken into smaller segments.  By utilizing a heavy ball to player ratio in our training sessions, our players get thousands of touches per session.  The days of standing in a line with one ball per team are long gone.  Technical development makes up the core of our training U12 and below.
