Soccer (futbol) - Boys
Boys | Girls | Schedules and Current Events
The soccer program at the Academy is a very unique program. Student athletes from all over the world. Brazil, Columbia, Spain, UK, Germany, Holland, Mexico, Switzerland, Africa, Argentina, Peru, Venezuela, France, Jamaica, Korea, Japan, Italy and the USA make up this international team. Each player's skills and experience will grow as the team develops.
There are players who speak little English but once the ball is at their foot the language of soccer becomes fluent. This unique environment allows individual players to build their skills with such rich diversity and cultural experience.
The players will play many games over the year and will be challenged at the highest skill level at practice and competition. The team will play an average of 25 games and travel to a variety of tournaments. The team continues to be a dominating force in the state. The program has won six back to back District Championships and has made the final four for three years running. In his first season, Coach Mike Potempa has led the team to become the 2010-2011 ESPN RISE Nation champions. The team continues to grow and new players enter play at the highest level every year. To play with such a tremendous team is a remarkable experience, and the relationship between players lasts a lifetime.
