For families who may not be comfortable returning to competitive play, select branches will offer skills academies this fall.

Academies offered once per week, are a good fit for a first-year player interested in playing at a faster pace or a seasoned player looking for work on specific skills within the game. Academies offer small-sided gameplay but are limited to only players within each session. Teams Teams are formed based on age. Challenge teams practice twice per week, play regular season games on Sunday afternoons plus an occasional Saturday , and attend tournaments.

A player selected for a Challenge team remains registered to that team for one seasonal year Aug. Players are expected to attend both practices each week and be focused on the training session.

Playing time depends primarily on attendance, attitude, and work ethic. However, since the game is the best teacher, players generally play about half the game and earn more playing time based on the above criteria.

Teams play each other based on a schedule created by the NCFC league scheduler. Each season, Challenge teams play approximately eight games and attend local or out-of-town tournaments where they may play against teams from anywhere in the state. Most regular season opponents are within the Triangle region.
