DC Way Academy Soccer

13 teams. One final tournament. ⚽

This weekend our teams head to the Mid Atlantic Cup, the last tournament of the spring season. It's been a long season and our players have put in the work. Now it's time to finish strong.

If you can make it out, come cheer them on. Your energy on the sideline makes a real difference.

Go DC Way Academy! 🧡

Spots are filling up. ⚽

The DCWA Next Level Training Summer Camp is built for competitive players who want to come back to the fall season sharper and more confident. Real training, real development, and plenty of fun along the way.

And this year, Girls Week has a special surprise. A professional soccer player will be making a special appearance at camp. More details coming soon. 👀

This one hit different. 🧡

The Bason family has been part of DC Way for years, with all three of their kids going through our programs at different stages of their soccer journeys. Even after moving two states away, they're still part of this community.

Here's what they had to say:

"What first attracted us to DC Way was the way the coaches made learning soccer fun. As our children grew and became more serious about the sport, the training evolved with them, becoming more challenging, tactical, and focused on development."

"Former coaches still stop by to watch our children play when we are at tournaments in the area. That says a lot about the people and the culture of the club."

That's what we're building here. Not just a soccer club. A community that lasts.

Thank you, Bason family. 🙌⚽

This is why we do what we do. 🧡

We sat down with David Schneider, parent of Oliver from our U8 Boys Orange team, to hear about his family's journey at DC Way Academy.

Oliver started in the rec league and worked his way into the academy. Along the way the family found something they didn't expect — a real community. Running into coaches and teammates around the neighborhood, showing up to cleanups and games together. It became more than just soccer.

In David's own words:
"Oliver gets to release all that extra energy in a curated competitive environment, and the staff makes participating easy, which is one less thing we worry about."

That's exactly what we're building here. One family at a time. ⚽🙌
