Indie Chicas Playing in Girls Academy League
The Indie Chicas 2006 team is doing something special this season; they are playing in the Girls Academy League – the leading youth soccer development platform for the best female soccer players in the United States.
The GA has a program that allows for non-member “discovery teams” to play under the uniform of a member club. Bridge City Academy in Portland, Oregon, a member of the GA, invited the Indie Chicas 2006 team to play under their uniform as a discovery team, giving us the opportunity to learn more about the GA, and giving our girls exposure to a higher level of play and more college recruiters.
In January, the Indie Chicas 2006 competed in their first showcase tournament in San Diego with a strong showing (2-1-0). We were contacted by eight college coaches, many of whom complemented us on our players, style of play, and creativity with the ball.
Over the next three months, the girls will be playing weekend tournaments in Portland and Seattle against the best teams in the Northwest. Go Chicas!
UPDATE: (4/12/22) The 2006s are having a great season. They are currently ranked 4th in the Northwest League and 10th in the National Girls Academy standings.
