Academy Program (U8-U10)
In 2008, GSC started an Academy league program for 9 and 10 year olds. In 2010, GSC expanded the program to include 8-10 year olds. The Academy program allows players to build their soccer skills at a different pace than the rec league. It provides young athletes some exposure to slightly more advanced training. The Academy program is a great way to determine if a child might be interested in select level play as he or she grows older.
Academy programs will play in fall and spring. The teams will begin training in mid-August 1-2 times per week. There will be 6-8 games per season against other Academy teams in the metro-Milwaukee area. Teams will also participate in 1-2 tournaments per season.
Registration for the 2011-2012 year is $190 plus $200 coaching fees. In addition, uniforms need to be purchased (~$40) and each tournament the team participates in is ~$25 per player.
