Georgia Knights FC - Academy Soccer

At the Academy level, success is not based on wins and losses nor is it about competing at the highest level.  The development of the individual player is the main priority.  This program is made available to the keen and eager young soccer player that may express an early interest in the game.  Commitment is introduced and encouraged from the player and parents at the Academy ages.  In order to develop better soccer players at these ages, players must practice skills and complete repetitions for improvement.

We encourage any player that seeks higher level of training and competition to try out for our academy.  All Georgia Knights FC academy coaches are professionally licensed, giving our coaches the education to specifically work and develop youth soccer players.  Our Academy ages are from U9-U12 Boys and U9-U12 Girls. Tryouts are held for placement of players’ ability and best interest.  Teams train 2 times a week and are offered a third optional practice session each week.  

Try-Outs
Try-outs for the Academy program typically take place in June for the seasonal year beginning in August.  Individual player evaluations will take place at the end of January or beginning of February for players interested in joining in the Spring.
