Kentucky United Soccer Club, often listed as KY United Soccer Club, publishes its public information on a LeagueLineup-hosted site for the Lexington, Kentucky, area. The club describes a pathway from young developmental soccer through select and competitive teams for older players, with a stated focus on community and long-term player growth.
The club’s vision is to be the strongest community-centered soccer club in Kentucky while developing players to reach their fullest potential on and off the field. Its mission is to promote a love of soccer through the “Development of Excellence through Unity” of players and coaches while positively impacting member families and communities.
The Pre-Academy program is described for players around ages 6 and 7, offered in fall, winter, and spring. Sessions are framed as one training block per week (about 30 minutes) followed by about 30 minutes of small-sided games in 3v3 or 4v4 formats so staff can adjust teams and fields to match the week’s lesson. The Academy program for ages 8 and 9 forms seasonal teams in fall, winter, and spring with about two training sessions per week (about 45 minutes) plus about 30 minutes of small-sided games. Academy teams are described as taking part in club-wide and statewide play dates and friendlies, then moving into the Select program at U10. The academy motto stated on the site is: Have Fun - Play Hard.
Select teams are formed through an evaluation process in local areas, with combined teams when numbers are low. The program is presented as a step beyond typical recreational soccer, emphasizing development in a competitive but rewarding setting. Training follows a curriculum aligned with Kentucky Youth Soccer Association and U.S. Soccer guidance. The site describes a pool format where players in each age band train together at times and are grouped by similar ability, with flexibility for roster adjustments. Select teams train twice per week with weekend games, use local or agreed centralized training when teams are combined, and may play in about one to two tournaments per season. Acceptance is based on player evaluations at tryouts held each spring.
Competitive teams are selected through an evaluation process at a centralized combined location and train at a designated club-wide training location. The competitive side is split into two named tracks on the site. The Elite program (white teams) targets highly committed players seeking a demanding environment; it outlines three age-based developmental emphases from younger ages through a college-showcase-oriented phase for older groups. Elite coaches are expected to hold at least a USSF D license or equivalent; Elite teams from U15 upward are described as having at least two training sessions per week, with more possible depending on team needs. The Premier program (blue teams) offers a professionalized training setting for players who want strong training without the full commitment described for Elite, with its own three phased developmental outline; Premier coaches also hold at least a USSF D license or equivalent, and Premier teams are described as having two training sessions per week, with schedules set in advance.
The LeagueLineup site includes program pages, a newsletter signup, and contact forms for the executive director and general club inquiries. Specific season dates, field addresses, and tryout calendars should be confirmed on the live site because they can change year to year.
