24/25 PREMIER EVALUATIONS

Evaluation Dates: May 1st & 2nd

Evaluations are for all players born between 2006 – 2016. 

Evaluations are for the 2024/25 season.

Premier evaluations are for both current and new players. All players must register for evaluations. Returning players need to wear their club practice kit.

Evaluations are conducted by the United Soccer Alliance professional coaching staff. There are several evaluation dates and we prefer players to attend as many as possible to ensure they are placed appropriately.

United Soccer Alliance has a proud history of developing some of the best players and best teams in the South-East United States. Our Premier program is exceptionally competitive and is staffed by some of the best coaches in the nation.

Please arrive 30 minutes before to check in.

  • There is no fee for the evaluation but you MUST register!
  • For players to be most accurately evaluated, they should attend as many sessions as possible. If they can not, they must make the lead coach of the session that they attend aware.
  • Each player will need to bring an inflated soccer ball, a drink and and be properly dressed for soccer including wearing shin-guards.
  • Please understand that this is an evaluation and not a try out, but due to limited space all children may not be placed.
  • We will be using the Evaluation Days to evaluate each player for proper placement within the Academy.
  • All U9-U19 aged players for the 2023-2024 season are welcome to attend.

The major focus of Premier is to provide player-centric training that nurtures growth in all components of the game. This will be accomplished through some of the following:

  • An emphasis on age and developmentally appropriate activities.
  • Training that promotes creativity, technical proficiency, dynamic decision making and a passion for the “beautiful game”.
  • Practice sessions following a curriculum provided by the Directors of Coaching.
  • The use of a licensed professional coaching/training staff to enhance the players’ soccer experience.
  • Complete oversight of individual player development and age group growth by the Directors of Coaching.
