Greetings, I am Coach Maika; Founder & Director of The Academy 352. I have played and coached Soccer the last 20 years for Youth, Academy, College, & Semi-Professional Teams spanning across Florida, California, Washington D.C., Washington State, Texas, Kenya, & Tanzania, East Africa. I am the Captain for our Professional Academy Team, & Coach for our Future Pro Academy Team, whilst my youngest brother plays for the Florida Regional ODP Team. I created The Academy 352 due to 2 main factors that has hindered the success rate of Youth & Adult Athletes from the 352 Area:

1. the quality of coaches

2. Profit > Prosperity

3. Academy Structure

I have both played and worked for most of the clubs here in town and it has led me to create "The Academy 352",  where I can revive the Professionalism within the sport & where the success of players will come before profit. As a parent you should be receiving the service you pay for & your child should have a chance to play somewhere; at least collegiate level. The Goal for “The Academy 352” is to provide your player the Foundation needed to shape Him or Her into an Elite Athlete and help them reach the Highest level of American Soccer; The MLS & The NWSL. 2 of our 5 Academy Coaches are former Professional & National Team Players with a combined Soccer experience of 60+ Years, while the remaining 3 Coaches are all aiming to play Professionally so, you can understand how serious we take Soccer at "The Academy 352"

Welcome to the academy,

Where failure is not an option
