Soccer 5 Academy

What the club offers

The Training Program serves roughly U5 through U14 birth years in an introductory track focused on passing, shooting, dribbling, and ball control in a supportive class environment. Those players do not join outside league games; sessions use scrimmages and game-like activities in practice. Coaches may move a player into the Recreational Program when fundamentals are solid.

The Recreational Program targets the same broad age span with twice-weekly, one-hour practices plus a weekend game when the schedule allows. The emphasis is positions, tactics, teamwork, and social skills in recreational-level competition, including Florida Youth Soccer league seasons across fall, winter, and spring and optional local recreational tournaments. Coach recommendation and consistent on- and off-field character factor into advancement to the Competitive Program.

The Competitive Program carries U7 through U14 players into three one-hour practices per week (Monday/Wednesday/Friday or Tuesday/Thursday/Friday blocks depending on the team), with extra weekly goalkeeper work when offered. Teams enter high-level competition through South Florida Premier League and EDP Florida Competitive in fall and spring, plus local or travel tournaments as scheduled. Registration includes an FYSA pass for the stated cycle, Nike home and away game kits, and two Nike practice jerseys; tournaments, referee fees, and the first monthly installment are outside that bundle. The academy also maintains a partner-club relationship with Inter Miami CF Academy so standout players can be referred into Inter Miami’s Discovery Program when they are ready for the next step.

Where programs meet

Primary Miami-Dade hubs are Tropical Park (7900 SW 40th Street, Miami) and Kendall Soccer Park (8011 SW 127th Avenue, Miami). Additional programmed sites include Amelia Earhart Park in Hialeah, John Prince Park in Lake Worth Beach, Brian Piccolo Park in Hollywood, and Tradewinds Park in Coconut Creek. Practice days and time windows (commonly 5–6 p.m., 6–7 p.m., and 7–8 p.m. where capacity allows) depend on age group and location, so families should confirm the assigned site and slot when they enroll or speak with the office.

Fees, uniforms, and registration

For the active Training cycle, enrollment runs about $100 and includes a practice jersey, shorts, socks, and a ball for use through the stated season window; ongoing tuition is about $110 per month for two practices per week, with the first month billed separately from the registration bundle.

Recreational enrollment is about $150 and covers the practice kit bundle; monthly tuition is about $130 for two practices and scheduled weekend games. Game uniforms are purchased separately through the club’s Soccer Locker storefront.

Competitive enrollment is about $250 for the active competitive cycle and includes FYSA registration for that period, full Nike match kits, and two practice tops. Monthly tuition is about $175 for three weekly sessions, with tournaments and referee costs billed apart from that base.

Camps and seasonal intensives

Year-round camp offerings include spring break, summer, and winter blocks for players from beginner through advanced tracks, grouped into foundations, development, and advanced curriculums. Spring Development Camp in 2026 uses Kendall Soccer Park, Tropical Park, Brian Piccolo Park, the Lake Worth Beach site, and the Coconut Creek site on staggered March weeks split between Broward/Palm Beach and Miami-Dade. Full days generally run 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with optional late pickup available for an extra weekly fee. Weekly camp tuition is $225 at the standard rate for the seasonal camp blocks the club runs.

Philosophy and how to move forward

The club’s motto is learn, improve, and enjoy, pairing expert coaching with progression from foundational classes to recreational teamwork and, for motivated athletes, regional league and tournament play. Competitive tryouts for the academy’s selective teams take place at Tropical Park for eligible U7–U14 players when registration is open.
