RDS Talent Centers logo

RDS Talent Centers are operated in conjunction with Red Bulls Academy affiliates and offer cost-free supplementary training programs to areas with a high concentration of talented youth soccer players.

As our most advanced supplementary training programs, RDS Talent Centers for Fall 2024 are intended only for the very highest-level boys and girls. Only extremely advanced players are encouraged to apply.

Participation is strictly subject to try-out, and registration for try-outs is subject to a $30 fee. This non-refundable fee ensures all applicants are serious candidates, fully committed to attending tryouts, which are expected to reach capacity quickly.

Featuring one night of training per week, these supplementary sessions operate the RDS curriculum and provide access to the same features and benefits*, including:

  • High-level, technical, individual training with a low player-coach ratio
  • Eligibility for RDS Winter and Summer Showcase teams
  • Assessment for RDS Pre-Academy Teams
  • Consideration for Red Bulls Academy teams

*Note: Participation in an RDS Talent Center does not include a full written evaluation, which is only provided with the RDS clinics and RDS Residential Camps.
