BOO AT BARNESVILLE TOURNAMENT RECAP! 👻🖤❤️

What an AMAZING day for our Belmont Academy soccer family!

Our U8 and U10 teams traveled to Barnesville yesterday to compete in the Boo at Barnesville Tournament, and we couldn't be prouder of every single one of these kids!

From the first whistle to the last, our players showed up, worked hard, battled through some tough games, and left everything they had on the field!

🏆 A special shoutout to our U10 Team (Coached by Jay Bermudez) for finishing 2nd and our U8 Team (Coached by Katie Fowkes) for finishing 3rd! We also had our other U8 & U10 Teams both place 4th! What an incredible accomplishment!

But beyond the wins, goals, and saves, what makes us the proudest is watching these kids grow, build confidence, support their teammates, and develop a love for the game.

A HUGE thank you to our coaches Dustin Walls & Devin Cain, momagers Chelsea Walls & Allie Cain, parents who brought snacks & drinks to refuel between games, and families who spent their entire day at the fields cheering these kids on! Days like yesterday are long, exhausting, and a little chaotic, but they're also what make this soccer family so special. Thank you Jennifer J Jacobs for purchasing orange socks for the U8's it was such a nice touch! Thank you to Barnesville Soccer Association for hosting!

We started Belmont Academy to give kids an opportunity to learn, grow, and fall in love with soccer. Watching them compete and seeing how far they've come reminds us exactly why we do what we do! We're not just building soccer players, we're building a community and a family that extends far beyond the field.

We are SO proud of all our Academy kids!

Play hard, have fun, and most importantly, enjoy every minute on the field!

Let's go, Belmont Academy! 🧡🖤

Trunk or Treat Fun! 🍬🧡

What a fun night spent with some of our favorite kiddos and families! 🖤❤️

We absolutely love getting to see our players come together outside of the soccer fields, making memories, laughing with friends, and just enjoying being kids!

A HUGE thank you to all the parents and families who came out and joined us! It's moments like these that remind us that our program is about so much more than just soccer. It's about friendships, family, community, and creating memories that these kids will carry with them for years to come. ❤️

We hope everyone had an amazing time, collected lots of candy, and enjoyed a little Halloween fun!

TWO YEARS AGO…

Two years ago, we started working on what would become Belmont Academy—getting the fields ready, making plans, and preparing for our very first season.

There was so much excitement, so many ideas, and honestly, no way of knowing just how much this program would grow.

A lot has happened over these last two years.

We’ve learned, changed, grown, and created so many memories along the way. But one thing has remained the same: this program is about the kids.

None of what Academy has become would be possible without our amazing parents, players, coaches, volunteers, families, and community who continue to show up and support these kids.

What started as an idea has become something pretty special—a soccer family and a place where kids can learn the game, make friends, build confidence, and simply have fun playing soccer.

Looking back at where we started makes me incredibly proud of how far we’ve come, and even more excited about where we’re going.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of these first two years. Whether you’ve been here from the very beginning or just joined us this season, you are part of the Academy story. ❤️🖤

Here’s to many more seasons, memories, and kids falling in love with the game! ⚽❤️

HAPPY NATIONAL COACHES DAY! ⚽️

Today we want to recognize all of the amazing coaches who give their time, energy, patience, and heart to our kids.

Coaching is so much more than teaching the game. It’s encouraging a child when they’re struggling, celebrating their accomplishments, building their confidence, teaching teamwork and sportsmanship, and helping them grow both on and off the field.

To all of our Belmont Academy Coaches:

Jay, Katyn, Jacob, Cory, Trisha, Chevy, Logan G, Sumer, Dustin, Shayla, Nate, Logan W, Jamee, Brian, Briana, Morgan, TeeJay

From Coach Devin & Coach Katie ---THANK YOU! ❤️🖤

Thank you for showing up.
Thank you for volunteering your time.
Thank you for your patience.
Thank you for believing in our kids.
And most importantly, thank you for helping create memories and a love for the game that we hope stays with them for years to come.

We truly could not do this without you!
