Interested in becoming a Host Family for Orlando City Academy Athletes?

Applications Now Open!

Do you have a spare room and a heart for helping young athletes succeed? Orlando City Academy is seeking high-quality, supportive families with a warm and comfortable home to provide accommodation for an Academy player pursuing their soccer dreams. Players require a private or shared bedroom, transportation, and daily nutritious meals.

Why Host?

By becoming a host family, you will play a vital role in a young Academy athlete's journey, providing not just a place to stay but a stable, caring environment where they can thrive on and off the pitch.

We’re Looking For Families Who Can Offer:

  • A private or shared furnished bedroom (with another Academy athlete, but not a host family member)
  • Three nutritious meals a day and snacks
  • Transportation support to and from the Academy trainings and games
  • A positive, safe, and structured home environment with internet and laundry access as appropriate
  • Encouragement and understanding of the demands on elite athletes
  • Meet all screening requirements

What You’ll Receive:

  • A monthly stipend to cover expenses (supplemented by Orlando City, Academy athlete's family, or both)
  • Complimentary tickets to each Orlando City B home game for the duration of the homestay
  • The chance to make a lasting impact on a young athlete’s life
  • A meaningful connection to Orlando City’s future stars

Whether you're a soccer fan, a caring family, or an empty nester, this is your opportunity to be part of something special.

For more information, please contact Emma Potter at epotter@orlandocitysoccer.com.
