Spring 2026
Alliance Junior Academy Soccer Program Is for Players (3-5 Years Old)
Detailed Info/Dates/Fees found HERE
The Alliance Junior Academy Soccer Program is the first step in our player development pathway and is designed for children ages 3–5 who are being introduced to the game of soccer for the first time. At Alliance Soccer Club, we believe early experiences should be fun, positive, and engaging, helping young players build confidence and excitement while developing a love for the game.
Sessions focus on fun, movement, and imagination, using playful, age-appropriate activities that encourage exploration and creativity. Players develop basic coordination, motor skills, and early ball familiarity in a supportive, pressure-free environment where effort and participation are celebrated.
Through guided play, children begin learning simple concepts such as listening, taking turns, sharing the ball, and playing together. Coaches emphasize encouragement, patience, and positive reinforcement, allowing players to learn at their own pace without fear of mistakes.
All activities are developmentally appropriate and aligned with U.S. Soccer best practices. At this age, success is not measured by scores or outcomes, but by smiles, confidence, and a growing love for soccer.
Play. Learn. Grow. Love the game.

The Alliance Senior Academy Soccer Program builds upon the foundation established in our Pre-K Academy and is designed for Kindergarten-aged players who are ready for the next step in their soccer journey. At Alliance Soccer Club, we continue to introduce the game through fun, movement, and imagination, while adding more structure to help players grow in confidence, skill, and understanding of the game.
Sessions focus on maximum ball touches through playful, age-appropriate activities that develop coordination, basic ball skills, teamwork, and creativity in a positive, encouraging environment. Coaches emphasize effort, participation, and confidence, allowing players to explore the game without pressure or fear of mistakes.
As players mature, they begin learning simple game concepts such as sharing the ball, spacing, taking turns, and playing together. These experiences help players develop teamwork, sportsmanship, and a stronger connection to the game while maintaining an enjoyable and engaging atmosphere.
All training activities and games are developmentally appropriate and aligned with U.S. Soccer best practices. At this age, success is not measured by scores or standings, but by smiles, growing confidence, and a genuine love for soccer.

Recreational Select Soccer Program
Detailed Info/Dates/Fees found HERE
This program is designed for players in 1st through 12th grade, welcoming both beginners and experienced players. It allows athletes to experience the excitement of competition while continuing to have fun in a positive, supportive, and development-focused environment.
Practices are typically held twice per week at local schools. Soccer is a team sport, and players are expected to attend and actively participate in each practice, as this is where learning and development take place. Games then provide an opportunity for players to apply what they have learned during training.
Teams compete in the Recreational Youth Soccer Developmental League (RYSDL) or the United Recreational Soccer League (URSL). Teams are formed based on school years and are organized as boys’ or girls’ teams within two-year age brackets.
Home games are played at Oakdale Middle School, Deer Crossing Elementary School, LOUYAA Park, and Old National Pike Park. Away games vary throughout Frederick County depending on the host team’s field location. Games are typically scheduled on Saturdays, with occasional Sunday matches. High school teams play Friday night matches under the lights on turf fields.
Through weekly training sessions, players continue to build and refine their technical skills while also improving overall physical fitness. Our coaches emphasize effort, teamwork, sportsmanship, and confidence, aligning with Alliance Soccer Club’s commitment to long-term, positive player development.
All new players are required to purchase a uniform package prior to the start of the season.
(If you purchased an Under Armour uniform for Fall 2023, Spring 2024, Fall 2024, Spring 2025, or Fall 2025, a new uniform is not required for Spring 2026.)
