Programs & Services
From a first U6 touch on the ball to a college commitment, Dutch FC runs one connected pathway. That's exactly what every program below provides: coaching built on the same Dutch methodology, tuned to a different age, level, or goal, at no extra layer of complexity for families.

Which one of these sounds like you?
We have a program for every player at every level. Our goal is to make football accessible and affordable.
My child has never played on a club team.
Start with a camp. It's a week, it's $145, there's no tryout and no membership required — so you get to see our coaching and our environment before committing to anything. Most families who join us started here.
From there, the usual next step is TIPS skills training, or trying out for an Academy team if your child is U10 or younger.
My child is 10 or younger and ready for a real team.
Academy is the U10-and-under program — real teams, real coaching, built around fundamentals and falling in love with the game. Two six-month seasons a year, and dues are the lowest of any team program we run.
My child is 11 or older and plays competitively already.
Select is our competitive program for U11 and older — 31 teams competing in ECNL Regional League North Texas N1 and NTSSA leagues. Teams are placed at Advanced, Intermediate, or Developmental level through our Squad System, so your child competes where they'll actually be challenged.
Tryouts are typically held in May for the following season. Mid-season additions are possible when a roster spot opens.
My child plays for another club but needs more touches.
TIPS Performance AcademyTIPS Performance Academy and our camps are open to players from any club — no tryout, no membership. TIPS runs on Fridays specifically so it doesn't collide with a typical team practice schedule.
This is the honest version of the 80/20 argument: development happens in training. If your child needs more repetitions than their current team gives them, come get them here.
I'm 18 or older and I still want to play.
1st Team and adultsTwo options. The 1st Team competes in the UPSL against former college and professional players — that's the top of our pathway. The adults program is for players 18+ who want competitive soccer without the semi-pro commitment.
My child is a goalkeeper.
Goalkeeper trainingOur Club Goalkeeper Program is free to Dutch FC keepers aged U11–U18 — position-specific training every Monday with a dedicated goalkeeper coach. Most clubs charge separately for this, or don't run it at all.
Private training and keeper camps and clinics are also available.
One club, from U4 to semi-professional
Most clubs in this market hand a player off somewhere — to a different club at U11, or to nothing at all at U18. Since we added the 1st Team in 2026, a player can start here at six years old and play adult semi-professional football without ever leaving.
U4–U9
Grassroots
Recreational
The perfect entry point for young players to learn the fundamentals and enjoy playing with friends.

Academy and Select
These are the two year-round team programs. Both require a tryout, both include the full Dutch FC curriculum, and both are covered by the same club dues structure.
Academy · U10 and younger
A foundation built on enjoyment.
Real teams for young players building a foundation. The priority at this age is that a child wants to come back next week — so we coach for enjoyment first, then fundamentals.

What the dues don't cover
Team fees and uniforms are separate from club dues, and travel is separate again. Every number, itemized, is on the fees page — including a full-year estimator. We'd rather you saw the real total now than in October.
The Squad System
Within each Select age group, teams are named after Dutch professional clubs and ordered by level. It's borrowed straight from how professional Dutch academies organize themselves.
Ajax
1st team
PSV
2nd team
Feyenoord
3rd team
Sparta
4th team
AZ
5th team
Why it matters to your child
A player is placed on the squad where they'll be challenged and still play real minutes — and the placement is not permanent. Players move up as they develop. Coaches make those calls on player evaluation alone: not politics, not parent pressure, not who paid what.
The part that matters most:
the level of competition differs between squads. The level of investment does not. Same curriculum, same coaching standard, same training hours, whether your child is on the Ajax squad or the AZ squad.
Training and camps — no tryout, no membership
These two programs are open to any player, from any club. If your child plays elsewhere and needs more touches, this is the door.
Skills Training
TIPS Performance Academy
Twelve sessions built on Ajax's TIPS method — Technique, Insight, Personality, Speed. Three phases: dribbling, then passing, then shooting and finishing. Fridays, deliberately, so it doesn't collide with team practice.

Personality & Speed
Personality and Speed are generally innate qualities but can both be positively influenced in the right environments. We encourage players to express their Personality with a winning mentality by improving their Work Ethic, Adaptability, Mental Toughness, Leadership, Focus, Confidence, Positivity, Coachability, Communication, Team-Work, Responsibility, Respect and Discipline. Speed is often thought of as only a physical part of the game, which it is, but it also consists of Technical Speed and Tactical Speed. A Slow Physical player can seem physically faster when they apply Technical and Tactical Speed.

How the pathway works
1
Try out for your age group
Register for tryouts and train with coaches who evaluate technical ability, game intelligence, and coachability, not just athleticism.
2
Get placed on your squad
Every age group runs multiple connected teams. Placement reflects your current level, not a permanent ranking.
3
Train, compete, and move up
Add camps, skills sessions, or GK training as needed, and move between squads as your game develops.
Try out for your age group
1
Register for a tryout. Open tryouts are typically held in May for the following season. Registration is required before attending.
2
Attend the tryout. Coaches evaluate technical ability, tactical understanding, physical attributes and character — attitude, coachability and effort count.
3
Get placed. Coaches place your child on the squad that fits their current level, with a defined route up. On evaluation alone.
4
Missed tryouts? We accept mid-season additions when roster spots are available. Call and ask — new players joining mid-season have their dues prorated.
For camps, TIPS or goalkeeper training
No tryout and no membership needed. Camps and TIPS register through PlayMetrics at dutchfc.com/camps and dutchfc.com/skills. The Club Goalkeeper Program is included for Dutch FC keepers — talk to your coach.
Where everything happens
All programs train at the Fields of Faith Soccer Facility at Stonebriar Community Church, 4801 Legendary Dr, Frisco, TX 75034 — the club's own five-field complex, four of them lit.
