The New York Red Bulls Academy Affiliate Program, part of the MLS Youth Affiliate Network, is a platform designed to improve the player identification and development of elite youth level players by providing greater access to high level soccer opportunities.
The most talented players within the Academy Affiliate Program will participate in co-partnered elite player development and talent identification programs operated by both the Affiliate club and the New York Red Bulls Academy.
In addition, each Affiliate will be introduced to a coaching education schedule tailored to elite level player identification and development.
Kevin Thelwell, Head of Sport:
It is an exciting opportunity to take our partnerships to the next level by collaborating on player identification and development programming.
