What is Academy?

The Sporting Indiana FC Academy is an exciting & challenging program with a long history of developing some of the best youth players. We are very proud of this program that has a strong family culture & a high level of expectation for our players. We focus on creating a positive and fun environment for our players to be creative, independent, & work hard. Academy is the Intro Phase of Travel Soccer, developing and preparing players for the Development Phase of Travel at Impact SC when they reach 11U. The main objective of the Academy is to promote & emphasize the technical abilities of young soccer players as well as create a physical, tactical & social foundation.

What is Academy Callouts?

Callouts is a way to evaluate all players that want to participate in the Academy program. There are some rare exceptions in which we feel that a player is just not ready for the Academy, but we call it Callouts rather than Tryouts. This is an Intro Phase, so we want to give everyone who wants to play Academy, a chance.

Starts at 6pm, please arrive a bit early to check-in at the tent.

• Check-In at the tent.

• Proper gear: shin guards, cleats, & water. You will not need to bring a ball.

• Callouts should last ~45 minutes.

• Players will participate in a training circuit consisting of small-sided games, mini games, fitness test & skill work.

• This is a stress-free, pressure-free program.

• Parents are encouraged to stay and watch, but please refrain from interactions with the players until afterwards.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out directly to Zach Peach, our Academy Director.

See you at the fields!
