What ages and program levels does Soccer 5 Academy offer?The Training Program welcomes beginners from about U5 through U14. The Recreational Program covers a similar span for players who are ready for team practices, league-style weekends, and recreational tournaments. The Competitive Program focuses on advanced U7–U14 athletes who can handle three practices per week and South Florida Premier League or EDP Florida Competitive schedules.
Where does Soccer 5 Academy train and play?Core Miami-Dade sites are Tropical Park on SW 40th Street and Kendall Soccer Park on SW 127th Avenue. The club also schedules sessions at Amelia Earhart Park in Hialeah, John Prince Park in Lake Worth Beach, Brian Piccolo Park in Hollywood, and Tradewinds Park in Coconut Creek. Confirm the assigned complex and practice window when you register because slots depend on age group and capacity.
When are tryouts or evaluations, and how does registration work?Open competitive tryouts for academy teams are hosted at Tropical Park for eligible U7–U14 players whenever the club opens that registration window. Families request tryout times and check roster availability by emailing academy@soccer5usa.com. All programs ultimately enroll through PlayMetrics using the signup links tied to Training, Recreational, Competitive, or camp offerings.
What do tryouts or registration cost?Training registration is about $100 for the current cycle plus roughly $110 per month for two weekly practices. Recreational registration is about $150 plus roughly $130 per month for two practices and scheduled weekend games. Competitive registration is about $250 for the stated season bundle—covering FYSA registration for that period, Nike home and away kits, and two practice jerseys—plus roughly $175 per month for three weekly sessions. Tournaments, referee fees, and the first monthly installment sit outside those base quotes.
What does a season of club soccer cost beyond the headline fees?Monthly tuition covers the scheduled practice blocks. Recreational families should budget separately for red and black Nike game kits through the club’s Soccer Locker portal. Competitive families should plan for tournament entry and referee costs on top of tuition. Optional camp weeks run about $225 per week at the standard rate, with add-on late pickup available for an extra weekly fee when families need coverage until 4:30 p.m.
What is Soccer 5 Academy’s mission, philosophy, or coaching approach?The organization promotes learning, improving, and enjoying soccer at every level. Training classes stress fundamentals and love of the game without outside league pressure. Recreational play emphasizes teamwork and character while introducing real games. Competitive tracks layer advanced tactics, high-level competition, and character development, with a formal pathway toward Inter Miami CF Academy’s Discovery Program when players earn a recommendation.
