In addition to their U13 and U14 age groups, we will have another team competing in the most competitive youth soccer league in the country. MLS Next, started in 2020, is anchored by MLS Academy teams with other non-MLS academy clubs invited based on performance on and off the field. Since the league’s inaugural year, Inter Atlanta FC has competed in the U13-U14 age groups. With continued success of developing players and teams, our 2010 B ADP team currently sits in second place above Atlanta United and Charlotte FC, while our 2011 B ADP team occupies fourth place in the elite 12 team league.

“Everyone at our club has worked extremely hard, raising standards for all of our programs”, said Executive Director Kevin Kinley. “Developing players and preparing them for the highest level has been rewarding for Inter Atlanta. MLS Next has technical standards that our players and staff have exceeded.”

MLS Next expansion, which improves the level of play for our most competitive teams, along with new programs at IAFC offering free or low cost community-based soccer opportunities, aligns with our mission to provide quality soccer for players at every level.

Inter Atlanta is poised to gain more MLS Next age groups for the 25-26 season. The current teams will travel to Nashville, TN this June to compete in the MLS Next Cup. Information on tryouts for MLS Next, DPL, NAL and Academy for next season can be found on our website.
