Are you the best dribbler on your team or maybe you think
you have the strongest power shot?The game of soccer is not just about what you
can do on the field in the final minutes, but also about the unique skills that
you have that shape you as a player and cause you to love the sport in the
first place. Join the Academy Team for the first event of our fun-filled
