It’s a huge benefit to our players, and we look forward to offering them more opportunities within the sport.”

NY Select LC Academy’s club philosophy revolves around infusing the culture of football and futsal, emphasizing fundamental skills and technique development, and teaching quick decision-making. As an affiliate of NYC FC, they aim to prepare their players for the opportunity to participate in MLS Next, and believe that the Champions Cup Series is a good pathway to help their players reach these goals. Within the Champions Cup Series program, NY Select LC Academy will have exposure to top competition across the world, international player development opportunities, as well as enhanced social media presence through program promotion, which will position them as one of the premier futsal and football youth development programs in the northeast.
