AUFC Youth Development Academy

We have put together a very well rounded, cognitive soccer experience for our Youth Development Academy that intertwines physical literacy, social development, and creating a love for soccer. This fall you can expect your child to be introduced to the game of soccer through a variety of games and activities that help develop their motor skills, coordination, basic soccer techniques, build relationships & most importantly have fun!
