The Mark Krikorian Residential Soccer Academy is entering its fourth year at FSU and again looks to host some of the nation’s top talent during the five day academy. The mission of the academy is simple; provide every player with an unforgettable soccer experience that takes them to a new playing level.

The combination of elite college and club coaches with current collegiate players from FSU and abroad provides every camper the opportunity to be exposed to some of the best coaching in the country.

The Residential Academy is a 5 day long, intensive soccer academy geared toward competitive players that are serious about improving their skills and aspire to play at the next level. The primary focus will be on technical application, as technique is the foundation of all success. Additionally, campers will be introduced to the tactical side of the game and be afforded a first hand glimpse into "the beautiful game" that is FSU Soccer.
