Red Bull New York and Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club announced an expanded youth development partnership from Harrison, N.J. The collaboration will support five age groups ranging from U9 through U13, effective for the Fall 2026 season.

The partnership implements a three-session weekly training model grounded in Red Bulls methodology. This includes a Friday supplemental skills development session specifically targeting technical repetitions and individual player growth during critical developmental years.

Training Structure and Methodology

The expanded program introduces a systematic approach to youth development across multiple age groups. The Red Bulls Youth Programs will now provide professional-level training support to Brooklyn Italians players throughout the U9-U13 age range.

Technical director of Brooklyn Italians SC, Antonio Superbia Jr., emphasised the partnership’s role in creating consistency across the club’s youth development structure.

“The newly extended partnership expansion with NYRB Youth Programs solidifies the trust and ambition between our organisations.

We now have five age groups, from U9 through U13, being trained under the Red Bulls curriculum, providing our youth players with a consistent, professional, and age-appropriate training methodology.”

Developmental Focus Areas

The collaboration prioritises technical growth, confidence on the ball, game understanding, and fostering a positive learning culture. The Friday sessions represent a specialised component designed to enhance individual skill development during what both organisations identify as key developmental years.

The partnership reflects a broader commitment to creating a long-term player development environment that supports youth players through systematic, professional training methodologies typically associated with higher-level soccer programs.
