Players accepted to the Boonville Soccer Academy will be placed on a team with other players of their age & gender. Teams may be combined ages (ex. U13/14), this will vary by team. We are a competitive club and expect committed players that are ready to work hard, learn and level up their skills, game awareness, and teamwork. Practice attendance is crucial!
The fall season runs August – October; spring March – May; with an optional futsal season over the winter. High school girls play only fall and winter; high school boys play winter and spring. Youth teams U9-U15 play all three seasons.
Teams will practice a minimum of 2 days per week (M-F evenings; Sat mornings). Times and days are set by individual coaches; you’ll be contacted at the beginning of each season with practice information.
All teams will be entered into the M3 (Mid MO Micro League). Teams play 3v3 or 5v5 Sunday afternoons in Boonville. Some teams will compete in the full-sided MMSL (Mid MO Soccer League) on Saturdays in Boonville; teams play age appropriate 7v7, 9v9, or 11v11. Teams that compete in full-sided games will also attend 1-2 travel tournaments during the season (varies by team).
Each fall, players receive two practice tees, a ball, and game socks (as needed). Players also will be issued a uniform for the year that will be returned at the end of the spring season.
Academy tryouts take place each June to form teams for the year (fall, winter, and spring). Players must try out each year, be accepted to the club, and register as directed to be placed on a team. Missed tryouts? Contact us.
