A strategic alliance between Loudoun Soccer and Virginia Valor to establish the preeminent ECNL National program in Northern Virginia.

Virginia Valor is a highly-respected youth soccer organization centered in southern Loudoun and western Fairfax. They are the result of a merger between SYA and CYA soccer clubs in 2021. Virginia Valor brings a strong coaching staff and leadership team to the Alliance.

Loudoun Soccer is one of the largest youth soccer clubs in the Commonwealth of Virginia, with over 16,000 players rostered annually in Rec, Travel, ECNL and Adult soccer leagues. The Club enjoys deep and established technical and operational resources, and owns a turf soccer facility in Leesburg, Virginia.

Alliance ECNL teams compete and gain recognition at the most elite levels, increasing player and team exposure on a national level. The Alliance clubs also share technical and operational resources to provide the best possible training and development opportunities for our players.

Additionally, the Alliance will increase opportunities to launch creative programming options at scale to help enhance every players’ experience and enrich the level of coaching.

The 2024/25 coaching slate will be posted on the NVA website prior to the commencement of ID sessions in early March.

Registration is open now. Because NVA has migrated to the PlayMetrics registration platform for 2024/25, ALL players--new and returning--must create a PlayMetrics account to register for Talent ID, A Quick Start Guide to creating your PlayMetrics account can be found here.

Talent ID sessions are held in early-mid March. Attendance is by invitation only, and all players must register for consideration. 

Players from any club are eligible to try out at Alliance Talent ID sessions.

Multiple NVA Talent ID sessions will be held for each gender and age group. Selected players will be invited out for specific sessions via email; registration is required for consideration. Team selection is a dynamic process involving multiple interdependent elements. Depending on the team, coach, and composition of the player pool, players may learn their status within days of their session, or it may take multiple sessions to finalize rosters. Players will be notified of their status via email from NVA staff.

NVA staff take several factors into account when making selection decisions, including:

1. ID session performance
2. Familiarity with the player
3. Observation during games and/or training

The 2024/25 Club fee structure can be found on our Alliance Fees page. 

Yes. The 2024/25 financial assistance application and process can be found on our Document links.

Since 2024/25 is the second of the two-year uniform cycle, returning Alliance players can use their uniform from 2023/24. Players new to NVA must purchase an NVA uniform kit.

Returning Alliance players will retain their current number; new players will be assigned numbers by the Alliance.
