At Saint Charles FC, our Pre-USL Academy program for girls (U13–U17) provides the most affordable academy-based and regional league pathway in the area—delivering a high-level soccer development experience without sacrificing quality. Players benefit from licensed, passionate coaches, state-of-the-art facilities, and a robust training schedule, all at a fraction of the cost of similar programs.

This program plays a pivotal role in our mission to offer a clear and competitive pathway from our youth academy to our U18/U19 USL Academy girls teams, and ultimately to the Pre-Professional USL W League women’s team.

Training is centered around the four pillars of elite player development—technical sharpness, tactical understanding, physical performance, and mental strength—while also introducing players to advanced areas such as match analysis, sports science, and performance psychology. Our girls train three nights per week, engage in high-level match play, and compete in top regional and national leagues, with opportunities to participate in State Cup, the prestigious USL Academy Cup, and select international tournaments.
