Girls Academy Overview

GA for Website

Starting with the 2025-2026 season, the MYS U13-U19 girls top-tier teams will participate in the Girls Academy (GA) league. GA is the leading youth development platform for the best female soccer players in the United States and is the only national youth soccer platform that represents the collective vision of member clubs and actively engages the voice of the players to take real ownership of the league.

GA embraces the goals of club members and players to maintain a standard of excellence in coaching, competition, and regional and national showcase events throughout the year. And is committed to cultivating an environment that empowers each player to reach their best potential as exceptional athletes and human beings.

In the 2024-2025 season, there are over 100 member clubs with teams in the U13, U14, U15, U16, U17, and U19 age groups. The member clubs are split into eleven conferences that make up the Girls Academy national footprint. League play begins in August and culminates with the playoffs and national finals events in June and July.
