About

What the club offers
Girls Select serves U11 through U19 (birth years 2015–2007) with two or three 75-minute training sessions per week depending on team, WDDOA league registration, year-round training and games (high school–aged teams rest during the high school soccer season), three tournaments or showcases for older teams, staff travel coverage, and individual development plans. Girls ECNL serves U13 through U19 girls (2013–2007) with three 75-minute sessions weekly, league registration, year-round training and games with the same high school season break pattern, ECNL national events as scheduled by the league, two tournaments or showcases for older teams, Hudl video, staff travel, and individual development plans. Uniforms are not bundled into those tuition figures.

Classics Elite stresses virtues that extend past the final whistle: character, sportsmanship, discipline, fitness, achievement, and learning to win and lose the right way. The development pathway focuses on age-appropriate, positive environments, individual player plans, a full pyramid of competitive levels, and preparation for national, collegiate, or advanced club soccer.
