Impact United Soccer Club

Salt Lake City, Utah

About

Impact United Soccer Club (Impact United SC) is a nonprofit youth soccer organization founded in 1999 and rooted in the Sandy and greater Salt Lake Valley communities. Programming spans neighborhood recreation, early advanced academy work, and competitive teams for players who want a higher training load, with coaching framed around technical fundamentals, tactical basics, and a safe, inclusive environment.

What the club offers

Recreation soccer targets neighborhood and school-area play without tryouts, emphasizing fun, teamwork, and basic skill growth for large cohorts across Granite and Salt Lake school districts. The Elite Academy pathway groups roughly five- to seven-year-old boys and girls who show strong coordination and interest in a more structured setting: small-sided 4v4 league play in Sandy on Friday evenings and Saturdays, year-round practices of at least one hour weekly (with some coaches adding optional second sessions), and licensed coaches holding at least U.S. Soccer Grassroots or D licenses. Competition soccer runs from about under-eight through under-nineteen for boys and girls, with multiple teams per age band when numbers allow so families can find an appropriate competitive level. Top boys teams participate in US Youth Soccer National League Club Premier 2, and the girls competitive program includes Girls Academy Aspire alongside Utah Youth Soccer Association league play.

Training rhythm and philosophy

Competitive teams typically play about two league games per week during official fall and spring seasons and train at least twice per week year-round, including winter indoor work. Winter training takes place at Riverbend Sports Complex off California Avenue in west Salt Lake City and on futsal courts as teams schedule. The club expects serious commitment from competition players—regular training, home practice, and tournament travel when teams elect to attend local and out-of-state events (often three to six tournaments per year depending on the roster). Poor sportsmanship is not tolerated, and families should expect a bully-free sideline culture win or lose.

Tryouts, registration, and typical fees

Annual competition tryouts are scheduled around Memorial Day, usually spread across at least two sessions per age group at Bonneville Junior High School and nearby schools in the Sandy area. For the 2026–2027 seasonal cycle, academy and younger competition evaluations are slated for the week of May 18 and under-thirteen through under-nineteen evaluations for the week of May 26. Utah Youth Soccer Association Affinity event registration is used for many tryout signups; online registration closes twenty-four hours before the first session for each age band. Walk-in check-in with a completed tryout form costs twenty dollars, cash or check preferred.

Recreation registration runs through the Sports Affinity portal used for Impact rec; spring 2026 games were scheduled April 11 through June 6 with no games Memorial Day weekend. Illustrative recreation registration pricing has been early bird one hundred five dollars (May 1–31), regular one hundred fifteen dollars (June 1–30), and late one hundred thirty-five dollars from July 1 onward, plus separate uniform purchases at Soccer International on South Highland Drive. Elite Academy annual tuition has been about five hundred dollars, payable once or in three installments, covering coaching, 4v4 league fees, and training facilities but not uniforms or optional indoor winter league choices.

Competition club registration can be split into four consecutive payments or paid in full at signup; club fees cover referees, fields, winter training, equipment, and administration. Uniforms follow a roughly two-year cycle with base kits averaging about one hundred thirty dollars for home and away sets. Monthly coaching fees follow a license-and-tenure fee matrix collected by team managers; team tournament and optional winter league costs sit outside the core club fee. An additional UYSA player fee applies to participating athletes. Exact competition fee totals for 2026–2027 were still being finalized; families should confirm current numbers with the registrar.

Locations and age-group transition

Outdoor practices and many games center on Bonneville Junior High School and Spring Lane Elementary, with some teams using Holladay, Murray, or West Jordan area fields. Beginning with the 2026–2027 seasonal year, Impact United aligns with the nationwide move to school-grade–based age groups using an August 1–July 31 formation cycle while keeping tryouts central to placement; players may play up but not down.
