The SUSC Junior Academy Program is an accelerated soccer training/playing program which prioritizes skill development and nurtures a love for playing in a fun, competitive, and age appropriate environment, where players enjoy the opportunity to play with and against those of similar motivation and ability.

The SUSC Junior Academy is a unique and special training program for a select group of 6&7, 7&8, 9&10, and 11&12 year old** boys and girls.  The goal of the program is to identify and select a limited number of outstanding young players from the Seacoast region and train them once each week in an enjoyable and challenging environment which emphasizes skill development through individual and small group activities and small-sided play.

**11 & 12 yr old groups available at Hampton and York only.  13 & 14 yr old groups available at York only.

The SUSC Junior Academy Program is directly linked to our Player Development, Club Team, and Community Programs and much of the success of SUSC youth club teams can be attributed to the fact that the majority of our current players are SUSC Junior Academy Graduates. Because many of our past Junior Academy youth are currently playing for SUSC Premier Teams, this really enhances our commitment to continue to identify and nurture talented young players in a developmentally appropriate setting. Therefore, the staff directly responsible for overseeing SUSC’s club program, (U11 - U19 Boys and Girls) coaches the Junior Academy groups.

It is our hope that those involved in our Junior Academy Program will continue to learn and enjoy playing as they move up "The SUSC Ladder" of soccer playing opportunities.
