What is a Trapped Player?


Many of the U15 players may be playing for their High School in Fall Season and return to their club team in November. So what can U15 players going into 8th grade do, they are trapped, right? For these players, Club Ohio will create a Fall Team Program while their teammates play high school soccer.


Players will train locally. Depending on roster numbers, your local group may combine with other Club Ohio locations and participate in two tournaments. After the Fall Season, trapped players will join their teammates on their regular U15 teams.

Player Pathway

At the summit of our player development pathway stands our National teams, competing at national-level leagues such as NAL, Elite 64, and ECNL-RL. These teams are composed of the best players from within the club. Here, these young athletes strive to hone their skills against top competition, pushing boundaries in pursuit graduating to the next level of college and beyond.

Second from the top, we enter the realm of Regional teams that play high-level regional and state leagues, where athletes continue their journey. These leagues serve as crucibles, forging talent, building high-level game tactics and character through intense competition, preparing players for the challenges that lie ahead.

Next in the pathway are local teams engaged in local and low-level state leagues, providing an environment for talent to develop and evolve. Here, players refine their craft, developing the technical skills and building the foundation on game tactics for future success on the field.

At the base of our pathway lies our Juniors and recreational programs, where the youngest members of our soccer family take their first steps onto the pitch, embarking on a journey of discovery and enjoyment. Here, they learn the basics of the game, sportsmanship, and camaraderie that define our soccer community.
