Quick answers to questions you may have about Ken Soccer Academy and Ken Sports Management.

About the Academy

Our mission is to create a positive, supportive environment where young athletes can grow as players and as individuals. We develop not only soccer skills but also the values of teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship — investing in our players means investing in the future of the community.

Yes, Ken Soccer Academy operates as a nonprofit organization. Our focus is on providing community-based training and support, and all proceeds are reinvested into our programs and facilities to benefit the players and the broader community.

Follow us on social media and check our News & Events page regularly. We post updates on tryouts, showcases, player milestones, and upcoming events for both the academy and Ken Sports Management.

Joining the Academy

Players can join by completing our online registration form or contacting us directly for information about upcoming tryouts and enrollment. We offer programs for ages 10–23 across Grassroots, Youth Academy, Showcase, and Pro Pathway levels.

There may be registration fees and program costs depending on the level you enroll in. We strive to keep fees affordable and offer financial assistance where possible. Visit our registration page or contact us directly for detailed pricing and scholarship options.

Our programs cover a wide range of age groups: Grassroots (Ages 10–12), Youth Academy (Ages 13–18), Showcase (Ages 16–23), and Pro Pathway (Ages 18+). Each program is structured to match the player's development stage and goals.

Programs & Development

The KSA Pathway is a six-step journey: Join → Train → Compete → Showcase → Scholarship → Professional. Each step builds on the last, giving players a clear roadmap from their first session to a professional contract or college scholarship.

We have placed over 20 players in U.S. colleges through our annual Student Athletes Showcase and our dedicated college placement support team. We assist with player profiles, NCAA eligibility, film preparation, and direct introductions to college programs.

Players who progress to the professional level can be represented by KSM. They benefit from our network of clubs, agents, and scouts across Africa, Europe, and North America — including trial facilitation and direct contract negotiations.
