No payment or commitment to join. We’ll reach out when your player’s group is ready.

The BEYOND Standard

Building Players. Building People.

Two goals, equal weight: make kids better at soccer, and help them become confident, respectful, hard-working people.

Small groups, real coaching attention, and sessions built so every drill teaches both.

On the ball

Dribbling, turning, receiving, and striking — high-repetition work that makes the ball feel like part of the player.

In the game

Scanning, finding space, and choosing the next pass — taught in small games sized for each age group.

In the mind

Confidence, focus, and bouncing back after a mistake. We coach the mental side on purpose, not by accident.

At home

Simple, practical ways for families to support skill and confidence at home and on game day.

Winter Futsal

Fast, small-sided indoor play to keep players sharp through the cold months — more touches, quicker decisions. A future direction for BEYOND; dates, location, and pricing will be announced when ready.

How a new group launches

Interest first. A safe, well-planned launch second.

  1. Join the waitlist

    Tell us your player’s age group. It’s free and takes about a minute.

  2. Group reaches 6

    Once six players are on an age group’s list, that group is ready to form.

  3. We confirm the details

    Location, schedule, safety steps, and parent paperwork are finalized — and you see the schedule before committing.

  4. First session

    Payment is only requested after a real group is offered. Over 10 players? We open the next group’s waitlist.

Joining the waitlist doesn’t guarantee a spot or book a session. We’ll contact you when a group that fits your player is ready.

Smart · Creative · United

Better players. Better people. Coached on purpose.

Soccer doesn’t build character on its own — intentional coaching does. The moments are already inside the game; we coach them on purpose.

SMART

Read the moment

Look up, find space, and make the next decision with purpose.

CREATIVE

Own the solution

Try ideas, play with personality, and use mistakes to learn.

UNITED

Raise the group

Communicate, defend together, and help the player beside you succeed.

Resilience

Reset, stay engaged, and try again.

Responsibility

Own your effort and listen to coaching.

Teamwork

Share, communicate, and work for each other.

Respect

Compete hard and treat people well.

For parents

Three simple ways to support your player

01

Ask, don’t grade

On the ride home, try “What was fun today?” or “What did you try?” instead of reviewing mistakes.

02

Praise effort and choices

Notice hustle, bravery on the ball, and good decisions — not just goals.

03

Keep a ball nearby

Ten minutes of play at home — juggling, wall passes, dribbling — adds up to thousands of touches.

Where we serve

Serving Northeast Philadelphia

BEYOND offers youth soccer training for families across Northeast Philly. As new groups form, we choose convenient session spots for the players on each age-group waitlist.

  • Northeast Philadelphia
  • Rhawnhurst
  • Bustleton
  • Mayfair
  • Fox Chase
  • Somerton
  • Torresdale

Exact session locations are shared with waitlist families as groups form — before anyone commits. We do not list a public street address because BEYOND is a service-area program, not a fixed clubhouse.

Marco Silva, founder and coach of BEYOND Soccer Academy
Meet the founder

Hi, I’m Marco Silva.

I’m a father, coach, and founder who was born in Brazil and shaped by soccer experiences in both Brazil and the United States. I value the freedom, feel, and creativity of the Brazilian game alongside structure, teamwork, and purposeful development.

I created BEYOND to bring those strengths together. Players should become comfortable with the ball, learn to read the game, express themselves in attack, and understand the responsibility of helping the team.

The field is also one of life’s best classrooms. A missed chance teaches response. A difficult drill teaches patience. Defending for a teammate teaches responsibility. We coach those moments on purpose.

Questions

Parent FAQ

What ages does BEYOND train?

Small-group training is for ages 5–12, with separate waitlists for ages 5–6, 7–9, and 10–12. Private one-on-one lessons are available for players up to age 15.

How big are the groups?

Groups stay between 6 and 10 players. A group launches once six players join its age-group waitlist. If interest goes past 10, we open a waitlist for the next group of that age.

How does the waitlist work?

Joining is free and isn’t a commitment. Tell us your player’s age group. When six players are on that list and the location, schedule, and launch steps are ready, we contact waitlist families with the details. You only pay after a real group is offered to you.

Where do sessions happen?

Sessions take place in Northeast Philadelphia. Exact locations are announced to waitlist families as groups form — before anyone commits to a schedule or payment.

How much do programs cost?

Small-group training is $35 per class ($210 per six-week block, or two payments of $105). Private lessons are $75 per 45-minute session. Joining the waitlist is free — no payment is due until a real group or lesson time is offered.

Who are private lessons for?

Players up to age 15 who want focused one-on-one coaching. There’s no waitlist — email [email protected] or DM us on Instagram @beyondsocceracademy and we’ll find a time that works.
