Winstars Academy Program

Winstars Programs include:

Academy program – 6-month program (Winter/Spring or Fall/Winter)
Membership – one-time fee for all players to promote players with online profiles & highlight videos.
US Travel – 2 Showcase trips per year.
SAT Prep course – complete course which we run 2-3 times per year.

Our player-centric academy program has been designed to open doors for motivated young players. Each year our seniors go on to play in the NCAA or CIS, and many also go on to play for professional teams.

Our Academy program consists of 6 hours of technical training per week, in a professional environment. We have a professional goalkeeper coach on staff.

Our boys will be provided quality training gear, which includes: tracksuits – leisure and training, uniforms, rain jacket, winter jacket, travel bag and toque.

Our Academy has an annual showcase which is usually played in December and we have over 100 Coaches come from all over North America, including the CIS, NCAA and NAIA.

Each year we have a Summer Tour, where we visit at least 4 Universities and scrimmage those particular Universities, this is usually a week tour and is in the 3rd week of August.

We participate in a spring showcase tournament, in the FC Dallas Showcase, and we scrimmage at least two Universities in the spring season.

Each year we run a minimum of two SAT Test Prep courses at our office to help our athletes prepare for the SAT Test that is required for those who want to play sports in the NCAA or NAIA.

Once a Winstars player reaches the age of 16, a one-time Player Membership can be purchased. The player will then have access to our University Placement program. We will promote the player on our website (player profiles), and do the research to match the player with the best fit for university and soccer programs. We are always in contact with a multitude of US universities, and these schools are always pleased with the quality of player that we send their way. We take most of the worry out of selecting a university and getting prepared to meet admissions requirements.
