PHILADELPHIA UNION - SUMMER SELECT 2025 - OPEN TO BOYS & GIRLS (U8-U18)

The Philadelphia Union is proud to bring its second year of Summer Select to Eastern Pennsylvania. Our summer select program allows youth players to showcase their skills and represent the Philadelphia Union in two EDP summer tournaments. Our 2025 Summer Select will see the amalgamation of our very successful SJSL program, with our PA program which launched in the Summer of 2024. This merger gives players the unique opportunity to practice and play at the WSFS Bank Sportsplex, right in the shadows of Subaru Park. Play where the pros play and create incredible memories in the Summer of 2025.
