Who We Are

Our youth program has already made significant contributions to national representation, with 17 current youth national team players - 10 boys and 7 girls. This success reflects our comprehensive development pathway, which spans multiple age groups including U6, U8, U10, U12 (both competitive and non-competitive), U14, and U17 divisions.

In 2024, our youth teams achieved remarkable success, with our U14 Girls, U17 Girls, and U17 Boys teams all securing both Spring and Fall championships. Our teams have also performed well in external competitions, including strong showings in Hong Kong Friendlies and the Pacific Ocean Cup.

Beyond competitive success, our youth program emphasizes character development and community involvement. Our young players participate in various community initiatives, including facility maintenance and clean-up drives, learning valuable lessons about responsibility and community service.

Looking ahead to 2025, we're focused on further enhancing our youth development pathway through improved coaching programs and increased competitive opportunities. Our goal is to continue nurturing young talent while ensuring every player has the support they need to reach their full potential, whether at recreational or competitive levels.
