Countdown to Miami Season Opener

Welcome to Atlanta Fire United's USSF Academy blog...We hope you will follow along and support us throughout the upcoming year. If you would like more detailed info about the USSF Developmental Academy League please go to our homepage www.atlantaunitedsoccer.com or www.ussoccer.com.

Atlanta Fire's u-16 and u-18 academy teams are gearing up and getting very excited for their opening weekend of the season in Miami, Florida on September 5th and 6th. Both teams have been working extremely hard on the the training ground to prepare for what would be Atlanta Fire's 3rd season in the USSF Developmental Academy league. Having shown steady improvements in the previous two years we are looking to build on those improvements and have our most successful season yet in both age groups.

Both AFU's teams are buzzing with anticipation and eager to test themselves against the very best players and teams in the southeast region and ultimately the nation. The first two games will provide very stiff competition for us with Miami FC Kendall providing the season opener and Academy newcomers Weston rounding out the weekend on Sunday the 6th. Kendall are a powerhouse out of downtown Miami and are usually a very skilled and crafty team. Weston are led by former Atlanta fire coach Carlos Parra, who we are really looking forward to seeing again, will no doubt have his teams very well organized and ready for action.
