ORLANDO FC is an academy / elite / premier club - focused on the college-bound athlete dedicated to playing the game at the highest levels.
Our U17 and U18 QPR Academy teams have an ambitious training schedule and specific tournaments and game fixtures over the course of the calendar year geared to elevating their game and exposing the quality of their play to collegiate soccer coaches.
Our U12 thru U16 Elite and Premier teams compete in leagues, tournaments and state cup competition, with a view to providing them with competitive exposure, developing their game and preparing them for the rigors of playing the sport at the highest levels.
Many of our teams join ORLANDO FC as affiliates, bringing coaches, parents and players to play with ORLANDO FC. The club is structured to support our affiliate teams with access to playing fields, referee assignment, coach and player passes to allow participation in league and tournament play. Affiliation with ORLANDO FC often gives these teams access to play in tournaments and competitions that may not otherwise have been possible as a recreational team or as a team playing under the auspices of another club.
ORLANDO FC fields teams in most age groups from U12 - U16. Some age groups have multiple teams. As players get older, and other interest take players out of the game, it is imperative that we do what we can to keep as many playing the game at the highest levels of competition. Playing with ORLANDO FC as an affiliate team will give your players and parents an exposure to playing the game at the highest level of competition, and give your player the exposure to the ORLANDO FC experience that wil pave the way for their participation in our Academy program.
