Our Pre Academy program is the start of our player development and programs pathway and delivers an amazing prescriptive and intentional first sports and soccer experience to the kids in our community. Under our new agreement, we’ll not only be able to continue to enhance the program in Bowling Green, Warren County, but also expand the program to surrounding counties providing greater access to an awesome program.” - Tim Zuccarell, Executive Director, SKY Soccer Club
