FC Storm Academy

Development Soccer for U7 and U8 Players

Information and Registration

Fall 2024 Season

FC Storm Academy is a development program for boys and girls specifically designed for the U8 and U7 player. It will improve foundational soccer skills (first touch, dribbling, passing) through focused training and small sided games. Academy is conducted in a fun, positive learning environment that prepares players for select soccer.

Tryouts are not required to participate in the FC Storm Academy. The program and training are designed for players (families) who are serious about working on skill development and are mentally and physically ready for more advanced training.

Players are grouped by gender.  The U8 players participate in friendly games with other select clubs.  The U9 players participate in a more formal league.  Scores and standings are not not tracked for either age group.  Teams play matches against Cincinnati United, Cincinnati Elite, Lakota FC, Cincinnati Soccer Club, Impact, STAR, FOSC and others.

FC Storm Academy staff is made up of professional trainers and experienced, licensed coaches who are selected because they love teaching soccer to young players. They bring enthusiasm and passion that creates a wonderful environment for players to learn skills without fear of making mistakes.

The $200 fee includes the cost of trainers, games, referees and field expenses.  Players are required to purchase a uniform which is an additional fee.  If players play for multiple seasons, the uniform only needs to be purchased once.
