We are excited to continue our newest program for the 2027 Winter season! The Junior Reds Academy is a training program that also includes gameplay. It ensures our players a smooth progression in their soccer journey and allows them to join NMSC Grassroots (U8–U12) or Competitive (U13+) programs, depending on their individual journey and current team availability.
The program prepares players for the Grassroots pathway and requires them to demonstrate dedication and commitment to all their team events. The Winter program runs from January to April. To fully prepare for the Grassroots pathway, players should attend every week.
