Program Outline
Kelowna United have partnered with Okanagan Mission Secondary and the Central Okanagan District to operate the OKM/Kelowna United School Soccer Academy. Kelowna United will oversee all technical aspects of the academy.
The academy’s goal is to provide a formal training program, within the school timetable, with a commitment to academic and athletic excellence.
By partnering with Kelowna United on the OKM/KU School Soccer Academy, we are providing our student-athletes with greater opportunities by being part of a larger network and professional club structure.
We will have the Kelowna United indoor facility & Mission Sporstfields as the home base for our program.
The OKM/KU Soccer Program is integrated within the regular school curriculum and is designed to develop the individual skills of the participants. The program is open to all students with a desire to play soccer.
Youth soccer players in the Okanagan, particularly those in Rep, Regional and/or Provincial programs face a tremendous time management challenge in balancing their soccer and academic demands. The OKM/KU Soccer Academy addresses the athletic needs of students who desire to play soccer to the best of their potential without having the need to move to a larger centre to train.
