Take the Players University Tour

Are you ready to "graduate" to the next level as a soccer player?
Do you have what it takes to earn your "Certified Player" designation?
Do you want to test your level of knowledge and skill as a player?

Then its time to enroll in the Player’s University, the Soccer Player Association’s educational resource center.

The Player’s University provides soccer players of all ages and abilities with educational programs to help them expand their knowledge and understanding of the game, and perform at their best.

Player’s University programs utilize professionally-designed curriculums*, to teach players soccer skills and theory at their own pace and at a level which is comfortable for them. The courses are challenging, but the subject matter is presented in a way that makes it fun and engaging for student players to learn, and very rewarding for the students who "graduate."

What’s more, once students have completed a course, they are tested using both on-the-field assessment and computer-based (online) examinations. Upon successful completion of each course and corresponding tests, students receive recognition awards and a diploma, and can advance to the next level of the program.

Plus, the Soccer Players Association conducts proactive player identification programs to help its certification program student players be promoted to the coaches at higher levels (elite teams, college programs, professional programs).
