Edwin Rivas, former Real So Cal Academy alumni, was picked 37th overall in the 2015 MLS superdraft.  

Toronto FC picked the RSC academy alumni in the 2nd round of the draft.  Rivas, was discovered by RSC coaches while he was playing soccer in smaller leagues around the Los Angeles area. Rivas flourished within the Real So Cal Academy program where he helped his U18 team reach the Academy finals in 2010.

Coach Tony Cortez and the girls capped off an undefeated SCDSL Flight II season with their best win yet. It was a very exciting three weekends of soccer where they had to fight back late in games to continue to move forward.

We are pleased to announce that Santa Clarita Valley Magic has entered into an agreement with Real So Cal which will allow for soccer program resources to be shared between the two clubs. Magic will be changing its name to Real So Cal-SCV and its players will be wearing RSC uniforms in the fall. We are excited about the opportunity to move in the direction of unifying our respective geographical areas and having the RSC brand adopted by SCV.

From Club Soccer to Academy to College to MLS, Real So Cal alumni JJ Koval is a prime example of how the US Soccer System can develop a professional caliber soccer player.

We recently caught up with JJ to share his thoughts on how club soccer laid the foundation to prepare him to play and compete in both the college and professional ranks.

Greetings Real So Cal Families:

With your goals and parent donations, we raised $500.00!

Real So Cal announces our introduction of College Fit Finder for our U14-U18 players in an effort to further assist our players to connect at the collegiate level.  

As we strive to engage players, parents, and our own staff in the recruiting process, the club is providing this robust tool to EVERY High School age player/family at NO CHARGE.

Real So Cal alumna Samantha Johnson is living the dream.

2014 is a year Sam Johnson will not soon forget having just completed her first professional season playing for the Chicago Red Stars. Sam’s first year as a professional went well playing defense, a position she had never played, let alone at a professional level. It was definitely a learning experience and she took the challenge head on with no fear. Sam had a great coaching staff and great teammates to help her learn the position quickly.

Real So Cal’s very own Eric “Santana” Calvillo continued his Futbol world tour this summer as he captained the U.S. Under-17 Men’s National Team at the Copa Mexico de Naciones, in Mexico City. The International tournament took place August 2, 2014 through August 10, 2014 and featured fifteen teams from around the world. Santana’s participation in international tournaments and his returning to residency is all in preparation for the U17 World Cup in 2015.

The accolades continue for the Real So Cal 2013/2014 BU99/00 Academy team as forward Jason Manning was named Player of the Year for his age group.

Our girls ECNL teams made a strong showing at Surf Cup this weekend, with our GU17 capturing the title, our GU18 making the finals, and our GU16 reaching the semis. The GU17 won all six of their games and gave up no goals in doing so. Read more about the girls.

 

The latest edition of REALities covers Leonal “Beto” Alvarenga and Taylor Davila being invited to the Boys National Team camp. Read all about it here.

We want to congratulate our GU18 on a great showing at the ECNL finals in Seattle.After going undefeated in three pool play games, the girls met the Michigan Hawks in the national semi-finals on Saturday. After regulation and overtime, the game was tied 1-1, and unfortunately, the Hawks came out on top on penalty kicks. Once again, an RSC GU18 group moves on after accomplishing so much success at the youth level, and we wish the girls all of the best as they now enter the collegiate soccer scene.

Our B14  (1999) returns from Indianapolis today-victorious in all 3 showcase games-

• 1-0 vs Philadelphia Union (MLS franchise)
• 3-2 vs  New England Revolution (MLS franchise)
• 3-2 vs De Anza Force

Congratulations boys on an outstanding 2013-14 campaign, and on establishing yourselves as one of the top teams in the country!

With the conference season now behind us, our ECNL teams gear up for the playoffs in Seattle, Washington at the end of the month. Our GU16, GU17, and GU18 all qualified for the right to compete for a national championship as part of the top 32 teams (GU16 & GU17) or 16 teams (GU18) in their respective age groups. Go get 'em ladies!
