US Soccer Development Academy Boys
Teams
The DA features teams from the top youth clubs from around the country. Each DA team plays approximately 30 regular season games to ensure all games are meaningful. Games are also played according to FIFA’s Laws of the Game and officiated by a pool of the nation’s top young referees in order to prepare players for the next level of competition. National Team Scouts regularly attend Academy games, so players are evaluated over the course of the season and in their natural positions allowing for better player assessment.
Real Colorado is excited to be 1 of only 3 clubs in Colorado with full participation in the US Soccer Development Academy.
