Super Y is a nation-wide youth summer league operated by the United Soccer League (USL), which is the largest organization of elite soccer leagues in North America. Divisions within Super Y are organized geographically, and membership in the league is limited to only a few elite programs to ensure strong competition.
As a participating club, Fairfax Virginia Union offers high-performing players the opportunity to continue to train and develop their skills with professional coaches and play highly competitive games against other participating Super Y clubs throughout the summer.
Age Group | Fee |
---|---|
U11 Boys & Girls | $695 |
U12 Boys & Girls | $695 |
U13 Boys & Girls | $695 |
Super Y teams are totally separate from Fairfax Virginia Union teams that participate in the ECNL National League. All Super Y teams are formed to play together in the summer months only, with the exception of the North American Finals*, and usually, consist of FVU players from various teams as well as players committed to other clubs.
*Any team that receives a bid is required to attend the Super Y League North American Finals, which are held in mid December in Florida. Only U12 and older teams are eligible for the finals in Florida.
Super Y tryouts are held in March for the summer season and are open to anyone born in the ages listed on the tryout page. All players are evaluated during these tryouts by the team coaches and other evaluators based on several criteria, including technical ability, speed, and character. Selected players are notified shortly after tryouts are completed.
Tryouts will be announced in February and be held in March for the coming Super Y season.
All players must try out in their appropriate birth year. A player may not try out for a different age group unless they receive prior approval from the Age Group Director.
Roster sizes will fluctuate from year to year and team to team.
Typically, there will be one Girls and one Boys team in the U11-U13 Age Groups.
The roster size for Super Y teams ranges from 18-22 players. Rosters are slightly higher than a typical travel team to accommodate for potential conflicts with players’ summer schedules.
Teams are coached by professional coaches. Fairfax Virginia Union employs a licensed, professional coaching staff under the supervision of the club’s Director of Coaching.
The season begins in mid-June and ends in early-August.
Teams will have two practices each week and play approximately 6-8 games, which are played during the week and on weekends.
Teams will have two practices each week during the season. FVU will train at either Robinson High School, Woodson High School, or Nottoway Park. Each Super Y team will have a different practice schedule and location.
Teams play against other participating Super Y clubs and most games are played within 30-90 minutes of the local area. Half of all the games will be played at home at Robinson High School, Woodson High School or Nottoway Park.
Given that the season is during the summer it is anticipated that players may have other family commitments that prevent them from attending every Super Y event. However, it is expected that all players will communicate in a timely manner with the coach and team manager if they will not be available for practice and/or game in order to allow sufficient time to accommodate the roster.
The fee for Super Y is $695 and typically includes game day uniform kits.
