Junior Academy Tryouts

Real Colorado Junior Academy is a program for U9 and U10 players that provides the developmental bridge between recreational and competitive soccer for players whose intent is to become a competitive player at U11.  Junior Academy players get the benefit of paid professional Real Colorado coaches and more competitive play.  Don’t forget to check out our pre tryout camp for a chance to work with the upcoming coaching in the age group for next year.

Register For JA Tryouts

Due to the current impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, everything is fluid at this time and we ask that you regularly check back for the latest information.  It is still very important for you to fill out the form so we have your contact information and can alert you to possible opportunities to train with our teams and get updates related to tryouts. Be Safe!

Please contact Skye Peterson – Girls, or Mark Haston – Boys, if you would like to find out more information about the program.

Alternative Tryout Plan

As we are hopeful for a return to play that will permit us to have our pre tryout camp and tryouts, the following is our plan should we not be able to return to the fields and would need to form our teams differently.

Rising U10’s – 2011 Birth year

  • The Real Colorado coaching staff will place players based on their Spring 2020 teams with limited player movement
  • There will be the potential for increased player movement between Fall and Spring which as not historically occurred to help get players of like ability grouped together.
  • Player interested in the JA and not currently part of the program should contact Skye Peterson for girls and Mark Haston for boys with any questions.

Rising U9’s – 2012 Birth year

  • Player will be asked to register the week of June 22nd and all players will be placed as room on teams permits.
  • Real Colorado will hold a two day camp July 17th and 18th followed by tryouts on July 19th to help determine player placement
  • The cost of the camp will be included in the JA registration fee and will not require an additional signup.
  • Player interested in the JA and not currently part of Real Colorado should contact Skye Peterson for girls and Mark Haston for boys with any questions.
