Bayside United Soccer Academy

“At a young age winning is not the most important thing. The important thing is to develop creative and skilled players with good confidence."
-Arsene Wenger, legendary Arsenal manager

Despite the lingering snow we’re eagerly anticipating long days on the grass and the start of a fantastic season. Our club has been hard at work all winter preparing for your player’s return to the field, and we can’t wait to see them in action. This spring you can expect fun, development-focused practices designed to get players moving, teach new skills, and foster a lifelong love of the game — just in time to cheer on your favorite teams at the World Cup. Bayside United continues to grow the game beyond recreation by traveling for friendly league play in the Northwoods League. Away matches may be hosted in Escanaba, Marquette, Niagara, Iron Mountain, and Houghton. Teams U12+ may also have the option to enter tournaments (additional fees apply) for extra competition.

We’re fortunate to be supported entirely by dedicated volunteer coaches and managers — thank you for all you do on and off the field. If you’d like to help, please get in touch; many hands make the load lighter.
