Metro Alliance FC
Player Pathway

Metro Alliance offers a pathway for players of all skill levels and commitment goals.

• Our Junior Academy provides a once-a-week recreational training environment, allowing young players to develop their skills while building a love for the game.
• Metro Alliance Rising Academy is a training-based program designed for players ages 5–7 to experience club soccer in a fun and supportive environment. The program focuses on building foundational skills and preparing them for future participation on a club team.
• Our Youth Academy expands on this foundation, offering training twice a week along with competition in the SLYSA league and tournaments.
• As players continue to grow, those in our Pre-Academy can remain in SLYSA or, if seeking a higher level of competition and commitment, pursue opportunities on our Pre-N1L and Pre-Aspire teams. Beginning at the U13 age, players can compete on our N1L and Aspire teams.
• At the oldest Academy levels, players have the opportunity to compete across multiple platforms, including SLYSA, N1L, Aspire, MLS Next, and Girls Academy-providing access to the highest levels of competition for those ready to take the next step in their development.
