Guardians Club Soccer is VSA’s core developmental program for players looking for more learning opportunities through an all-inclusive team environment. Teams will train at least two times, up to three times a week, compete in a minimum of one tournament with the possibility of playing in more, and will be led by license and industry experienced coaches.

Our goal is to provide a challenging, but fun learning environment with progressive learning. All teams in Guardians Soccer program will be taught possession-based soccer with an emphasis on learning each position and its number in detail.
