The FC Dallas Academy teams started training for the 2025-26 season back in early August, with the season starting up in early September.
There doesn’t seem to be any major changes in the MLS Next system this year, but there have been a couple of coaching shifts in the FCD Academy.
FCD listed everyone on the rosters they gave me with their native age groups, so I will do the same here. But we know FCD was aggressive in moving players up last year, and I expect that to continue.
You can meet the U18s here. And the U17s here. The U16s are also up, as are the U15s.
FC Dallas U14s – 2012s
Head Coach: Adam Wells
This group won the 2025 Dallas Cup U13s and the 2023 Copa Rayados Internacional Super Group.
A surprising five new names on a roster that’s won a couple of trophies already.
I have not seen them play, so there is no Buzz list. (My self-imposed limit of not watching teams until U14 at the Dallas Cup). Positions are mostly via word of mouth.
