The Yellow Training Jersey
Every accepted player trains in the SFA Yellow Training Jersey for all four days — one consistent kit keeps the group sharp and holds the clinic's professional standard. Once your spot is confirmed, order from the SFA team store or pick one up in person.
⚡ Four days is demanding — a fresh jersey each day keeps your player comfortable. Many families order a few.

What to Expect
"My son attended SFA's Pro camp and ended up being selected to train in England with Southampton FC Academy coaches — one of the proudest moments of our family's year. Camp. England. A totally transformed player. When he came home, I barely recognized his game — sharper, smarter, and playing at a level I didn't think he'd reach for years. But what really stunned us was who he was when he came back. Not just a better player, but a more confident, driven young man. SFA changed his game and his mindset."

Everything Columbus parents ask before applying.
Who is the Southampton FC clinic for?
It's for competitive players ages U9–U16, boys and girls, currently playing at ECNL, MLS NEXT, ODP, Saints, or high-level club level. It's selective and application-based to protect the training standard for every attendee. Not at that level yet? Our Weekly Academy Training is the better starting point.
When and where is the 2026 clinic held?
July 5–8, 2026 at Soccer Field Academy, 2901 E. 4th Ave, Suite D, Columbus, OH 43219. Daily training blocks run by age group between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM — boys and girls groups are separated within each age block.
How much does the clinic cost, and what's included?
$479 per player for the full 4-day intensive. That covers every session with UEFA-licensed Southampton FC Academy coaches plus access to SoccerBot360, our exclusive training technology.
What is the opportunity to train in England?
Southampton FC Academy coaches select one player per age group to attend a player development camp in England over Thanksgiving. The only expense for the selected player is flights — everything else is covered. It's a real, earned pathway, not a giveaway.
How does the application process work?
Submit an application and coaches review it within 48 hours, based on level, experience, and fit. Spots per age group are limited, so apply early. This clinic is part of the Saints International Academy pathway in partnership with Southampton FC.
