Eastshore Alliance Fútbol Club (EAFC) offers one of the premier competitive youth soccer programs in the Bay Area, designed for boys and girls ages 8 to 18 who are ready to challenge themselves and compete at a high level.

Our Competitive soccer teams are formed each year through tryouts in May, drawing players from Berkeley, El Cerrito, Albany, Richmond, San Pablo, and surrounding areas. Once selected, players participate in year-round programming, including a Summer Preseason Program (starting mid-July), followed by Fall and Spring seasons. Each phase includes age-specific training sessions and competitive league matches.

During the winter break, EAFC players often transition to the BEARS Futsal Academy, a fast-paced indoor program that sharpens skills and keeps players active when the competitive seasons pauses.

EAFC competitive teams, from U9 (2017) through U19 (2007), compete in NorCal Premier Soccer Leagues, as well as events like the NorCal State Cup, local tournaments, and select college showcase events for our high school aged teams.

Our professional coaching staff, guided by two experienced Directors of Coaching, ensures every player develops within a supportive, growth-minded environment that emphasizes technical skill, tactical awareness, and character development.

EAFC is proud to offer our APX (Advanced Performance X) and Pre-APX programs for 11v11 teams (2013-2007) - designed to go beyond traditional youth soccer training.

The APX program provides a four-day-a-week training schedule, including:

• Performance enhancement and injury prevention

• Futsal training

• Position-specific sessions

• Peak performance training

• Video analysis and game IQ development

This integrated curriculum prepares players for the next level, whether that’s high school, college, or beyond.
