Academy notebook: Local derby takes center stage
After a pair of road trips to North Jersey and a double-header in Washington D.C. and Richmond, Va. last week, the Philadelphia Union Academy teams return home tomorrow to face a familiar opponent.
Whether you call them Continental FC or by their rebranded FC Delco name, the rivalry between the Union Academy and their nearby neighbors is one of the most unique in youth sports because of the overlap of students from YSC Academy who don’t compete with the Union in the Development Academy.
Always a competitive match and one both teams at the age levels look forward, YSC Sports will host games kicking off from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
