Youth travel Soccer Program

The Travel Soccer Program of Athletic Club Miami was created to provide a platform for players who are interested to compete not only in South Florida, but on the state, national and international stages. Our Travel Program's goal is to create the highest level of education for our players who are driven by a love of the game and a desire to be better.

The benefits are the following:

  • Discipline. Once a child moves up to travel, it requires much more work outside of the normal practices and games to allow their skill level to increase and improve. There is endless value for kids to learn that hard work, commitment, and discipline are required to excel in anything they do and this discipline can help them both on and off the field in all areas of their lives.

  • Discounted League and Tournament Fees, because the schedule and the participants of the events are planned well in advance.

  • MLS Next; Inter Miami CF Partner Program. 
    Under this partnership our ACM
    1. selected players are given the opportunity:

    ●  to take part of the Inter Miami CF Youth Discovery program

    ●  participate at Inter Miami CF practices as a guest player

    ● participate at Inter Miami CF youth games as a guest player
    2. ACM teams are given the opportunity to:

    ●  regularly invited to play friendly games against Inter Miami CF youth teams.

    ●  scouted by Inter Miami CF representatives at our league and tournament games Experiencing the challenges that they will encounter in a more competitive league.

  • Travel. Kids as well as some adults and coaches love to travel. Soccer tournaments offer a chance to get away for a weekend and do a “mini vacation” with the kids.

  • Versatile experience. Another reason soccer club teams like attending tournaments is because you play other teams not in your area.

  • Scouting. There are many “College Showcase” and International soccer tournaments that allow kids to be looked at by numerous collegiate/professional coaches.

  • Team, player, and parent bonding. Regardless of what anyone says about tournaments, good or bad, there is a lot of team bonding. This includes players, parents, teams, and coaches.

AC MIAMI TRAVEL PLAYERS' DIVISION BREAK-UP.

To create more playtime, support competitiveness and to reward professional attitude we divide the pool of travel players on the games into an ‘A’ (Black) and ‘B’ (Orange) squad.
The pool of ‘A’ and ‘B’ team players practice together with the Head and Assistant Coach, but based on their weekly practice attitude, work ethic and game performance, they are rotated in between the two rosters throughout the entire season.
With that being established, we will apply the professional European teams’ system, in which the underperforming athlete gets the same amount of playtime, but in the reserve group, and the players with the best work ethic are invited to the top team's roster. Using this method we can secure the playing time of each player, and in the same time make sure, competitive nature surrounds us throughout the whole season. Furthermore, the best performing players in Athletic Club Miami are rewarded by getting invited to play in the older divisions in multiple occasions. We will keep this tradition, since the players have been greatly benefiting by the extra playtime and versatile experience.
