A development program for players ages 6 to 18
It’s our hope that families stick with us throughout the lives of their children. The Folsom Lake Surf program supports soccer skill development from the early years up through high school. Based on the US Soccer Curriculum, children are trained and evaluated based on age-appropriate skills and measures.
While younger players gain a solid soccer foundation, older players are prepared to play at the highest levels – having opportunities to team up with players from other Surf affiliate programs and play in Surf Soccer tournaments in front of college scouts and coaches. The older players also have access to College ID camps and a program to support their college-level goals. Players at these levels also have opportunities to “play up” and combine with the most competitive players to team up for special events.
Our players have opportunities to try-out and train in Surf Select, NorCal Surf Soccer Club, Olympic Development Programs (ODP), NorCal Player Development Programs (PDP), as well as, placement on US Soccer Development Academies (USSDA) around the country and overseas programs. Currently several of our players are in ODPs, PDPs, and USSDAs.
