As only one of 6 clubs in Northern California invited to participate in the US Club Development Academy, San Juan Soccer Club feels great pride in earning this prestigious honor. Only the most outstanding youth soccer clubs, with the facilities and the credentials to fulfill the US Development Academy’s objectives, can partner with US Soccer in this premier endeavor. As part of San Juan Soccer Club’s commitment to providing the most elite national programs available for players in the greater Sacramento metro area, we co-founded the California Development Academy in 2008 to meet the highest standards and comprehensive requirements of the US Club Development Academy. We are pleased and proud to be awarded membership in the Northwest Division of the West Conference.
In 2007, US Soccer created the US Development Academy after a full review of premiere youth player development in the United States. This conclusive review proved changes must be made for US Soccer to advance to the next level of world play. The US Development Academy’s philosophy is based on creating an environment for the correct mode of player development, in the right every day environment, with less total games, and more high quality competitive games based on US Soccer’s Best Practices. Furthermore, the US Development Academy creates a network of National Team coaches and Academy clubs to identify players early for the National Team and guide those players properly to their future long term success.
