We offer a comprehensive youth soccer program with options for all skill levels, including developmental, recreational, and competitive play. The Hive Academy serves players ages 4U–10U with a focus on team-building around school and coach preferences. Futures, the recreational program for ages 11U–19U, emphasizes school-based team formation and participates in the Nebraska Youth Soccer League (NYSL). For players seeking a higher level of competition, Nebraska Roots offers select teams for ages 10U–19U that compete locally and regionally in the NYSL, with team placement determined through tryouts.
DEVELOPING THE PERSON:
At EAA, we believe that coaching goes far beyond the game itself. Our coaches are dedicated to the holistic development of every child, striving to nurture not only athletic ability but also strong character and life skills. We view the soccer field as an opportunity to teach values like responsibility, integrity, leadership, and resilience—qualities that young athletes will carry with them into school, relationships, and future careers. By fostering a positive and supportive environment, we aim to inspire our players to strive for excellence in all areas of their lives, helping them grow into confident, respectful, and well-rounded individuals.
DEVELOPING THE ATHLETE:
EAA is committed to helping every athlete reach their fullest potential through high-quality coaching, age-appropriate training, and a focus on continuous improvement. Our goal is to create a positive, safe, and educational environment where players are challenged to grow their skills, understand the game, and develop a lifelong love for sport. Whether an athlete is just beginning their journey or preparing for more advanced levels of play, we emphasize individual development, teamwork, and a growth mindset. We want each child to feel supported, empowered, and motivated to give their best effort every time they step onto the field.
