About the Upper Arlington Soccer Academy

Mark Wise - Director The UA Soccer Academy was founded in 2009 to provide summer camps, group and individual instruction in soccer skills.

In the fall of 2011, the UA Soccer Academy is being expanded to include, after school soccer educational opportunities, and opportunities to play on our U12, U14, U16 and U19 academy teams!.

These services have a common thread... helping the youth of our community learn the game of soccer, so that they can improve their game to their highest level and to enjoy the game for life.
