Fall Academy

Fall Academy is a recreational program built for players to build their skills! Sessions are held once per week. This program starts the first week of September and runs 8 weeks.


Program Concept

The Academy program is once-per-week session (30 min technical + 25 min game). This allows players to play a small sided game at the end and showcase all of the skills they learned at the start of each session. Our program is open to all Western New York families. You do not have to live in the City of Buffalo to join our club!
