Discover the Regional Academy at Independence Soccer for U13-U19 players.
Born in 2007-2013 (U13-U19)
The Regional Academy teams are for the high-level players in the U13-U19 age groups. One team per age group/region will be selected for each of the four programs that we support at the club. Players are selected based on geographic region in the Charlotte area. Boy’s Regional Academy teams compete in the National Academy League (NAL) and/or the National Premier League (NPL). Girl’s Regional Academy teams compete in the Girls Academy ASPIRE League or the Development Player League (DPL).
Current players are placed on these teams based on performance level in training, matches, and ID sessions. New players who are interested in this program must complete the Player Placement Process and attend ID sessions to be selected for these programs.
A typical season runs from August through May. Teams train 3 nights per week and play matches and tournaments that will require travel in North Carolina as well as the South-Atlantic region.

Introducing Our Soccer Program: Pre Girls Academy and Pre MLS Academy
Our Pre Girls Academy and Pre MLS Academy programs are made for high-level players in the U11-U12 age groups, serving as a stepping stone to our National and Regional programs. With a selective approach, approximately 24 players per age group/region are chosen for each supported program. Selection criteria are based on the geographical region within the Charlotte area.
Players in the Pre Girls Academy and Pre MLS Academy teams participate in the Carolina Development League (CDL) and may also have affiliation with the NCYSA. Current players earn their spots through exceptional performance in training, matches, and ID sessions. Prospective players keen on joining this program must attend the ID sessions for selection. The season runs in two segments (August-November and January-May), with teams training three nights per week and engaging in matches and tournaments that necessitate travel within a three-hour radius of Charlotte.
Players must complete the Player Placement Process and
attend ID sessions to be selected for these programs.
