Panther Soccer Academy is designed to develop well-rounded, versatile players who can play most every position. Our academy is built on fun and fairness. We are player-centric, which means that the teams exist to benefit the players, not the other way around. Our curriculum is stage based with a heavy focus on dribbling and goal scoring in stages 1 and 2. When players are competent dribblers and shooters, we incorporate passing and team concepts.
We rotate the players and provide equal playing time. We train indoors to maximize development. We play games on Saturdays in outdoor leagues with games around the city. Our home field (and most games) is currently Azteca Park in the Aldine area.
We are always looking to add new players to our competitive academy
teams. If you are interested in setting up a player identification session, please contact us at ryan@panther.soccer and send us an email with your players information (date of birth, gender, current team) so that we can set up an evaluation.
Tryouts for the fall season take place 1 week in mid-April and 1 week in mid-May. Clink the link below to see the schedule and register for an evaluation.
Joining the Panther Academy is a 1 year commitment, though in spring players need only train 1x per week if they are involved in other sports. Players must be involved in both the fall and the following spring seasons. Players have the freedom to play with us or do something else in the summer and winter.
Fall Season
In the fall season we require that players train 2 X weekly. If you require an exception, please let us know. Season starts in late August and ends in early December. Fall training begins the last week in August and finishes after the last week of November.
Spring Season
The commitment is for a minimum of 1 practice each week for 4 months (Mid February – end of May) and a game on the weekends. Players involved in other sports may opt out of games and just attend weekly training sessions. Players not involved in other spring athletics (such as baseball) are encouraged to train 2 x weekly. We frown on players training 1 x weekly with us so they can play soccer on other teams.
Practice Times
Practice times are largely consistent but can vary from time to time based on field availability and the number of teams in an age group.
