EM-SPORTS Academy Ltd is built upon the combined leadership, knowledge, experience and passion for soccer of our founder and Director of Player Develeopment Eddie Mukahanana. Established in January of 2003, EM-SPORTS Academy is committed to the development of the entire individual, emphasizing the importance of every player excelling both on the field and academically while encouraging active community responsibility.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ACADEMY AND MY CLUB TEAM?

The Academy program focus is, above all, individual player development with access to professional, qualified staff and facilities. All programs, sessions and planning are geared towards this end. Club teams even though recreational, are burdened by the fact that they have to gear their practices with emphasis on winning games to qualify for Cup competitions as a result forsaking individual player development.


WHY SHOULD I JOIN EMSPORTS ACADEMY?

The academy program is set up to appeal to the player that is looking for a place for Long Term Player Development (LTAD), to achieve his/her full potential as a soccer player. The LTAD is age and gender specific, meaning different elements are stressed at different times in the player's development right up to the point when players seek University scholarship.


IS THERE AN ACADEMY COMPETITIVE SEASON?

YES...However the focus is not on winning games, but on providing players the tools they need to succeed at an advanced level. Our Developmental teams from April to July provide players with opportunities to test their skills against other local BC based soccer academies and some of the most professional Washington State academy teams. Where available teams may play tournaments.
