Hi folks, does anyone know if there are any military colleges with a good women's soccer program? Cheers!
Absolutely, there are military colleges that have women's soccer programs and some of them are quite competitive!
The United States Naval Academy (USNA), for instance, has a very strong women's soccer program. Their team is part of the NCAA Division I and competes in the American Athletic Conference.
Similarly, the United States Air Force Academy also fields a competitive women's soccer team, which competes in the Mountain West Conference of NCAA Division I.
West Point (officially known as the United States Military Academy) has an active women's soccer team that is well-regarded within the Patriot League of NCAA Division I. Their program is respected and has had several successful seasons.
It's important to remember that military academies not only require academic and athletic excellence but also prioritize leadership qualities, physical fitness, and a commitment to service. If you're considering applying to these schools, remember that your commitment is not only to the college but also to subsequent service in the military.
Lastly, don’t forget to contact the coach of the team you're interested in when you begin your application process. Expressing your interest can give them a chance to see what you might bring to the team.
Best of luck as you consider these options!
