Where does Atlanta Fire United train and play?Recreational programming centers on Bunten Road Park in Duluth and George Pierce Park in Suwanee, with winter indoor rec at Silverbacks Indoor in Suwanee. Competitive and tryout activity regularly uses Scott Hudgens Park and Bunten Road Park in Duluth along with other club fields such as Notre Dame Turf Field and Pinecrest Academy grass and turf. Field status is updated when weather closes sites.
How do Academy and Select tryouts and placement work?The club combines ID sessions with tryout nights. Younger Academy and Select bands have used both Scott Hudgens Park and Bunten Road Park across three May evenings, while U15 through U19 bands have concentrated at Scott Hudgens Park for three May evenings in recent cycles. Exact nights and groupings change each year, so families should confirm the current schedule. Staff weigh tryout performance plus returning-player evaluations covering seasonal play, skill growth, maturity, and coach input when forming rosters.
What do recreational registration fees cover?Recreational registration fees pay for referees, field maintenance, equipment, insurance, and affiliation costs with the governing bodies the club uses.
What does Atlanta Fire United charge for common recreational seasons or add-ons?Spring 2026 recreational sign-up opened with program fees at one hundred ten dollars for First Kicks, one hundred eighty-nine dollars for the U6 weekday league, roughly one hundred eighty-nine to two hundred nineteen dollars for the wider rec league with uniforms purchased separately, thirty dollars for TOPSoccer, one hundred fifty-nine dollars for the winter indoor train-and-play series, and eighty-five dollars for the two-day IGNITE fundamentals camp.
