Welcome to the Villarreal Force Youth Academy

What is the Youth Academy?

The Villarreal Force Youth Academy is a program within Fayetteville Soccer Club that is sanctioned by North Carolina Youth Soccer Association and it is ideal for the young player who is taking particular interest in the sport of soccer and appears to be ready for a higher level of training as well as increased expectations. This program is for players who fall into the 7U, 8U, 9U or 10U age. To find out your child’s age group click here for the age chart.

Commitment level:

Commitment for the Villarreal Force Academy program is a mutual one-year commitment. Assessments for the Youth Academy are evaluated by our coaching staff.

Training:

The teams practice Twice a week for 75 minutes at the Jordan Soccer Complex.


Games:

We split the Youth Academy into two (Junior / Senior teams) for games based on age and development.

- Junior Youth Academy Teams who are mostly 8/9U players play 1 match every Saturday, with 8-12 games a season. All games are held at our Home fields (Jordan Soccer Complex)

- Senior Youth Academy Teams who are mostly 9/10U players play 2 matches every other weekend Saturdays only, with 8-12 games a season. Home games are played at the Jordan Soccer Complex, and Away games are typically played no more than an hour’s drive away at various locations such as Sampson county, Wilson, Clayton etc.

The Youth Academy program is a one-year commitment (Fall and Spring):

Players and their families are responsible for their own uniforms, travel costs and Lodging if necessary. Uniform information is given to you once you’re placed on a team. 

Assessments:

Players interested in the Academy Program must participate in an Academy Player Assessment.  This is not a "tryout" process resulting in a player being cut.  Rather, it is an opportunity for players, parents, and coaches to assess the suitability of the program to the player's stage of development and to determine if Academy placement is suitable. Typically, the assessments are in May of each year, however we do offer supplemental assessments when in season.
