Youth Menu
Spartan Soccer Youth Club & Spartan Soccer Youth Academy
Focused upon agility, fitness, soccer skills & drills, formations, footwork, and confidence building that translates to all sports. Includes physical development and conditioning. We incorporate creative solutions to develop children in both an indoor and outdoor setting.
When your child is ready to move from academy to our club teams, then they can do that (assuming both child and parent desire this). Conversely, if a child wishes to not play in league games and only wishes training, then we provide that opportunity so your child is always developing at their pace. However, we are always encouraging them to test their limits.
There’s lots of things that can impact the intent and motivation of a child from school & home life, and we wish to provide a positive outlet for them to grow. Many families may have struggles to manage the fees with any sport program and we can provide support with sport funding options.
Outdoor Season
May – June
Make up games may extend season into July
Training 2-3x week in season
Training 3-4x week off season
1 league game/week in season
Indoor Season
October- Feb
Training 2-3x week in season (1 session is outdoors for leg/trail day)
1x league game/week
However, at Spartan we provide ongoing training during and off season so there’s no break. We understand that family lifestyles prevent a child from always attending, and our system allows for that flexibility.
Spartan is a member of EIYSA (Edmonton Inter-district Youth Soccer Association) which is a member of ASA (Alberta Soccer Association). Spartan Soccer Youth are two different operations (club & academy). On the club side our teams for the 2025 outdoor season will be playing on the Northside in mixed teams. We believe mixed teams are an effective development channel for youth. On the academy side of operations we host training north or south of Edmonton (well, we can go anywhere if you want us and have a large enough group of children to warrant it) . If your association or school or community program wishes to add a soccer academy to the mix, then we can facilitate that. We can operate as an independent or endorsed academy: we just want to train your kids and build a better future for all.
Playing days and birth years for the 2025 season are as follows:
- U5 – Monday birth years 2020 – 2021

Frequently Asked Questions
- I want to make a team but I don’t want the hassle of chasing down fees
Each player can pay online towards team fees as an option. You don’t chase anyone.
- That’s pretty cool you came up with the 4 week, 2x games/week as a season called a flight
Thanks, we think so, too. But… what’s your question?
- What if some of my roster drop out or can’t afford the player fees?
Recruit and replace. We manage a wait list, too.
- What if our team can only play 2 of the 5 flights?
That can be done. We designed the program to best handle the pandemic uncertainties whilst giving max game time for players in concentrated pockets.
- I registered my team elsewhere, but we want Spartan now.
We hear that often and thanks. Can you get a refund? We have rapid onboarding to help your team join.
- 18 players required?
No, you can have a smaller roster.
- Can I have more than 18?
No, but you can recruit more players and replace as needed for each flight of games.
- Can I charge players more than what is posted towards the team fee?
You charge what you want. Be upfront with your players.
- Can I subsidize the team fees and spread the balance amongst players?
Yes and we can set it up as you wish for online player payments.
- What if there is a shutdown mid way through a flight?
We delay until they allow us to continue.
- How does a shut down overlap with the next flight?
It doesn’t. Unplayed games per flight are applied against the next flight.
- What if the whole summer season is under pandemic and we only play 1 month?
That’s why we devised the flight concept so that we can pivot quickly, enjoy games in a compressed format, and bunker down as per AHS.
- Do our players get to play for free in the cohort program on the other days?
Yes.
- Do the players in the cohort program get to play as a sub on our team if we’re short?
No. The cohort players would need to upgrade. You can recruit them.
- I have a team of 12, how does the team fee work?
The team fee doesn’t change.
