ACADEMY: Boys' DA coaches preview the 2019-20 season

The 2019-20 U.S. Soccer Development Academy is officially underway and the excitement of the Earthquakes Academy is at an all-time high with new Homegrowns on the horizon.

This season, there will be a few changes to the USSDA. The Quakes' Boys teams will only have five teams competing in the USSDA (U-13s, U-14s, U-15s, U-17s and U-19s) while our U-12s, U-11s and U-10s will participate against competition separate from the USSDA.

The biggest change however, is the USSDA adopting a brand new league format where the U-15, U-17 and U-19 Academy teams are split into two tiers.
