Boys and girls, ages U9 and up. Travel soccer is for players and families looking for a competitive and committed soccer environment.

Boys and girls, U7 - U9. All skill levels are welcome.

The travel season begins in late August and usually finishes in June. Top tier teams will train throughout the year.

The curriculum and program are designed by SL Benfica's technical staff and mirror the training methods used in the academy in Portugal. Teams are coached by our SL Benfica resident coaches from Portugal and professional American assistants.

The travel soccer program is designed to help players develop at every age and focused on the long term development of our players. As appropriate, players will move between age groups and team levels to ensure they are in the right competitive environment.

Age groups may have multiple teams, with players selected by their skill level. The Red team is the top tier team in each age group, followed by White and Yellow teams.

All teams will participate in EDP leagues, State Cup or President Cup competitions, and other domestic and international tournaments (based on coach recommendation and team interest).

Placement on a travel team is competitive. Interested players must participate in Player ID sessions and be selected by the technical staff.

Liga Benfica is available in Takoma Park/Rockville and Frederick, MD
