Girls Academy announces playoff groups
The Girls Academy League playoffs kick off next week in Oceanside, California. PrepSoccer will be on hand for the event at the SoCal Sports Complex. If you are interested in subscribing to Prep and reading about our exclusive coverage from the events, first time subscribers get 30% off with the code club30.
With some of the top talent in the country at the GA event, this will be a high priority showcase for scouts – and for the clubs as they battle for a strong finish to the 2021/2022 club season.
Prior to the event, the league announced the playoff groups for each of the six age groups competing for the national championship. There are 16 teams vying for the title in the U19 and U13 age groups – with the winners from those two age groups being decided in Oceanside. The winners from the other age groups will be decided at Finals Week in Earth City, Missouri in July.
The teams that did not qualify for the playoffs were eligible for the showcase event, which will take place at the same venue and the same time as the playoffs. The groups for the showcase can be viewed via the drop down menu here.
