SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY SOCCER ACADEMY
"BELIEVE IN YOURSELF"
At San Joaquin County Soccer Academy, we challenge and empower young student-athletes to be the best soccer players they can.
Our soccer development programs and clinics are designed for student-athletes between the ages of 6 and 14.
For U8 groups, we start with the fundamentals of the game, which include core skills focused on footwork--dribbling, passing, and shooting.
For U10 groups, we build on U8-fundamentals with attention to movement, spacing, and positioning.
For U12 groups, we emphasize form, mechanics, and timing while continuing to work on our U8-and-U10-fundamentals.
For U14 groups, we mimic dynamic pitch conditions to build confidence, enhance decision making, and strengthen game-time mindset.
Below you’ll find information about our soccer development program and clinics, our vision, and our founders' message.

FOUNDERS' MESSAGE
HOMETOWN ROOTS
Our families each moved to Tracy in the mid-1990s. Almost 30 years later, we are raising our children in Tracy with great passion and excitement for soccer.
We received strong encouragement from our student-athlete families to share our love for empowering our youth to believe in themselves and become their best.
We have parks to play soccer, but it rains in the winter and gets too hot in the summer. Contact us to learn more about our commitment to bring indoor soccer to Tracy.
