What is the format for Academy Competitions?
Academy Competitions consist of Academy Conference Matches, Academy Showcases and the Academy Finals. A team is expected to play between 30-38 matches per year between the three competitions.
U.S. Soccer will assign Academy Clubs to a geographically-based conference. The Academy Teams will play each of their conference opponents in a home and away match up with no more than two games per week.
Additionally, Academy Teams will be invited to participate in Academy Showcases, which will feature three games, including non-conference opponents. The Showcases will be held during holiday weekends at specific locations throughout the country
Finally, the leading teams in each conference will be invited to participate in the Academy Finals held in mid-July at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California. U.S. Soccer will pay each team’s travel and board expenses for this event.
