JELLYFISH ACADEMY (8U/10U)

Water Cities Soccer Club Academy Soccer!


What is the

JELLYFISH YOUTH Academy?


Water Cities Jellyfish Academy is for children who want to advance from recreational soccer programs like OYSC and the YMCA.


What is our MISSION?

  • Provide soccer players an avenue to test and enhance their skills.
  • Provide soccer players an opportunity to train regularly and play in competitive games.
  • Provide soccer players an outlet to increase their level of play against challenging competition.


Academy soccer is for the following age groups:

  • 8U Kids (Boys and Girls) born in 2017 and 2018
  • 10U Kids (Boys and Girls) born in 2015 and 2016


PRACTICES: We hold two practices per week. They will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:15 to 6:30 at Winnebago County Park. We plan on starting April 15.

 
GAMES: Games will be scheduled each Saturday between April 26 and June 21 (except Memorial Day weekend). All teams in our academy will play at the same location. We will not receive an official schedule until just before the season begins, but you can expect most games to start between 8:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. 


  • U8 plays 4 vs 4 games with no Goal Keeper (size 3 ball)
  • U10 plays 6 vs 6 games with an added Goal Keeper (7 vs 7) (size 4 ball)


Games will follow the US Soccer Small-Sided Game Guidelines. You can read more about those guidelines HERE. 


COSTS:  Our Academy Fee for the fall session is a very reasonable $75 until 3/31 ($90 for late registration after, if spots are available)

The cost for families to participate in our Youth Academy is the best around. 

Our small fee is for the entire fall season and includes a jersey for all players.

The fee covers WYSA Insurance, referee and game fees, field painting and mowing, jersey costs, etc.


ADDITIONAL COSTS: Players must purchase navy blue gameday socks (we sell them for $5),  They will also need black shorts (no pockets), soccer cleats, shin guards, and an age-appropriate ball.
