Lancaster Inferno is looking for players who want to train, play, and be exposed to the top levels of youth soccer. The USL Academy structure is unique as it provides its players with a true pathway from youth (USL Academy) to professional soccer (USL Super League). The USL Academy provides its members with exposure to scouts from college, U.S. Soccer, USL W League, and USL Super League programs and clubs. The academy league structure focuses primarily on player development by ensuring its member clubs adhere to strict standards in their home environments.
Our USL Academy team practices 3-4 days per week (sessions consist of on field training, film review, strength/speed training, individual and group player meetings, and recovery sessions). Players looking for an elite developmental structure, pathway, competition, and exposure to various avenues within the soccer landscape can find their home with the Inferno USL Academy team. Find out more on our USL Academy page and USL FAQs page.
