Fees for the Academy/Select Programs are higher than recreational soccer programs but reflect the higher level of commitment, training, and professional coaching provided to our promising players.

*ESC Academy/Select fees include registration, insurance, SCYSA fees, coaching fees, training fees, league fees, supplemental training, operational costs, field usage, referee fees, team fees, one tournament fee and travel reimbursement for the coach. Please note that a lot of the area clubs do not combine all the fees into one cost, there is no separate team account or coach's expense account that you will have to pay extra funds into.  Fees do not include the uniform fee or personal tournament travel expenses.

Payments can be made in full or paid monthly during the season. Please note it is not ESC’s intention to exclude any player from participating on an Academy or Select team because of money. We offer scholarships to those families/players that qualify. Please contact Jeff Young @ This email address is being protected from spambots.
