Professional soccer players don't become a professional overnight. There's years of an incredible amount of work, honing skills, playing games and practices, and a little bit of luck sprinkled in here and there.
It's all a part of the path to the pros, and for the Union, that starts with the Union Academy.
The Union Academy has become one of the best in all of MLS, from its teams to the facilities. YSC provides an outlet for Union Academy members to get state-of-the-art training, while also excelling in the classroom. While the actual Academy begins at the U12 level, the organization recently launched its Union Juniors Pre-Academy program.
