Triad Elite Soccer Academy

The YMCA and Triad Elite Soccer have partnered together to give your child that next step to being a better soccer player.  It is the natural progression from being in the Y’s recreational program to a more regimented skills and development program.  The Academy program is coached by licensed coaches that use a combination of skills sessions and small sided games to teach players the skills needed to move on to the Challenge and Classic level of soccer.  This program is designed to improve foot skills, tactical and technical game skills, shooting, passing, and dribbling skills all in a fun environment. 

The Academy Program is two seasons Fall and Spring.  We practice twice a week and play in Kick Arounds on the weekends against other area Academy’s.  Come to the Assessment in May or email Eulith Salandy the Academy Manager (ehsalandy@gmail.com), or email Linda Shafer (linda.shafer@ymail.com) if you would like more information about our Academy program.

Triad Elite Soccer Academy Assessments are May 21st at the Jerry Long YMCA from 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm.

Sign up for the Assessment at www.triadelitesoccer.com.  Fill out the Medical Waiver form that you can find on the website, bring a water bottle, your cleats, and be ready to play.

Assessments are for all kids ages 7-12. North Carolina Soccer Association has our youth do an Academy assessment once a year to establish each age groups development so that kids may be placed in the appropriate level of soccer.
