The Elite Soccer Youth Development Academy (ESYDA) offers a limited amount of financial assistance to qualified soccer players based on financial need. We believe that all eligible players should have the opportunity to be part of the club, regardless of financial constraints. Therefore, ESYDA is proud to provide a financial aid program to support soccer athletes who require financial assistance.

To be considered for financial aid, applicants must demonstrate financial need annually. The ESYDA Scholarship Committee will review this information to determine eligibility. Additionally, applicants must be in good standing with both the club and their school. Receiving financial aid does not exempt members from their volunteer commitments to ESYDA.

Families receiving financial aid are expected to participate in the club’s volunteer activities, as volunteer time is a requirement for scholarship recipients. This participation will be tracked. Volunteer opportunities include field preparation, tournaments, refereeing, team management, clean-up duty, and other service activities. Failure to meet volunteer requirements will result in the loss of the scholarship.
