Welcome to the online home of the Empire United Soccer Academy - Syracuse!

In August 2007, Western New York’s top soccer clubs, the Rochester Junior Rhinos, Syracuse Football Club and Buffalo United Soccer Club joined together to form the Empire United Soccer Academy.

Eva Gordon and Emma Firenze’s Region 1 ODP- Team USA brought home a gold medal and other awards in the 2013 Kuban Spring International Tournament in Russia. Read more about the girls and the tournament here:

Empire Revolution is excited to announce the expansion of our US Soccer Development Academy Boys Program to include the u13/14 age group beginning in August of 2013. Empire was an inaugural member of the US Soccer Development Academy and has competed at the u15/16 and u17/18 levels for 6 years.

Capped to the U.S. national team at the age of 19, Gale Agbossoumonde has not had his career go the way he probably hoped.  After stints at six clubs in the last four years and little playing time to speak of, the Togolese-born defender is back at square one. He finally signed with MLS and was assigned to Toronto FC through a weighted lottery conducted Thursday at MLS headquarters. At 21, he is still considered one of the top U.S. defensive prospects.

Fall Technical Sessions have ended for the season with great success and fun for all....
