The Forge Player Pathway

Find Your Path

Talent is common. A plan is not. Every Forge athlete starts with one evaluation — then follows a path built on four decades of coaching, not guesswork.

Four decades of coaching.
One clear path.

We don't sell random reps. We build athletes on a progression that's earned, measured at the Combine, and moved up rung by rung.

How it works

The Path, One Rung at a Time

The pathway turns Forge's programs into one progression. It starts with the evaluation and never leaves your athlete guessing about what's next.

01

Evaluate

Book the $25 Player Evaluation. One coach, one honest read, one written plan.

02

Get your plan

The evaluation places your athlete on the right track — by grade and by goals.

03

Choose your programs

Academies, performance training, and private coaching. Stack what fits.

04

Advance

Re-test at the quarterly Forge Combine, level up, and keep climbing.

Where the evaluation leads

One Evaluation, Two Tracks

Grades K–6

Youth Track

Fundamentals and fun first. Skills at the Future Ballers Academy, plus games and team identity in the Box League. The on-ramp to everything that follows — players age up into development when they're ready.

Grades 7–12

Development Track

Position-specific academies, four-tier performance training, and private coaching — measured and moved up at the quarterly Forge Combine. This is where committed players become advanced ones.

Questions Parents Ask

How does the Forge pathway work?

Every athlete starts with a $25 Player Evaluation. That read places them on the right track — youth (K–6) or development (7–12) — and points them to the programs that fit. From there they train, re-test at the quarterly Forge Combine, and move up.

What does the $25 evaluation include?

A 30–40 minute session with a Forge coach, three identified strengths, two development priorities, a recommended training path, and a written Parent Development Summary to take home.

My child has never played — where do they start?

Start with the evaluation. For younger, newer players the path usually begins in the youth track — Future Ballers Academy for skills, and the Box League for games once it launches.

When do the Box League, Goalie Academy, and Forge Fierce start?

They aren't live yet — we're gathering interest now. Join the interest list above and we'll notify you first when registration opens.
