Where on the ladder
Level 4 to Level 5
Each level below lists the leagues this club plays in. Your kid's level depends on the team they make. The six levels are our own reading of public league play. They are not an official ranking.
Sanctioned by New Jersey Youth Soccer (US Youth Soccer).

Valencia Soccer Academy, every team.

Each dot is one team in the 2026-27 season. We place it by the league the team actually plays in, not by the club’s own team names. A tap on a dot shows that team’s league, flight and record. The dots come from published league tables, so a team playing outside those leagues will not appear here.

College & pro pathway
Where the players went next.
We counted these from league records and player pages, not from the club’s own claims.
We found no college commitment from this club in public trackers, league records, the club’s own lists, or the 2,244 college rosters we hold. A player can still be missed. This is what the public record shows, not proof that nobody went.
Turned pro out of this club
The counts come from public commitment trackers, club lists, league records, player pages, and the rosters of 2,244 NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA programs. One player counts once per school. “Division unverified” means we matched the school but could not confirm the program level. We never print a current youth player’s name.
