Welcome to our Pre-Travel U7 Program—an exciting opportunity designed specifically for our youngest soccer enthusiasts! At DC Way Academy, we believe in nurturing talent from the very beginning, and our program offers the perfect blend of skill development, team building, and competitive play, all in a supportive and fun environment.
The Pre-Travel U7 Program is the perfect way to kickstart your child’s soccer journey. Join the DC Way Academy family and give your young athlete the chance to develop, compete, and grow in a vibrant, community-focused setting.
Our Pre-Travel U7 Program will not run this fall. Families are invited to join our Capitol Hill League for fun Saturday matches or our U8 DC Way Academy Travel Team for a more competitive experience.
Our Pre-Travel U7 Program is tailored to build the fundamentals of soccer while fostering a love for the game. Key components of the program include:
Structured Practices: Over 10 weeks, your child will enjoy one practice per week, building skills in technique, coordination, and teamwork through fun, active sessions.
Competitive Games: Experience real match situations through weekend league games in the Alexandria Development League, scheduled on Saturday afternoons.
Our U7 team competes against other DMV U7 development academies—including teams from Alexandria, DC Soccer Club, and more—giving young players a valuable opportunity to test their abilities, build confidence, and learn the importance of sportsmanship.
We want to let our families know that the Pre-Travel U7 Program will not be running this fall. Players are invited to join our Capitol Hill League for fun Saturday matches or our U8 DC Way Academy Travel Team for a more competitive experience. We look forward to seeing your player on the field this season!

DC Way Academy’s Pre-Travel U7 Program is the perfect starting point for young soccer players ready to take their first steps into competitive play. Designed with fun, growth, and development in mind, this program helps children build strong technical foundations while learning the values of teamwork and sportsmanship.
With weekly practices led by experienced coaches and exciting weekend games in the Alexandria Development League, players gain real match experience in a low-pressure, encouraging environment. It’s a great way to spark a love for the game while preparing for future travel soccer opportunities—all at a pace and style that’s right for young learners.
DC Way is committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every player, both on and off the field.
Each player is expected to bring their own water bottle and other belongings.
If a session is canceled due to weather conditions, we will always schedule a make-up session.
Our team is looking forward to providing you and your children with the best soccer experience in all of Capitol Hill! If you have specific questions not addressed here or on our website, please feel free to reach out to us at contact@dcway.com or call (571) 490-1275.
