Atlanta Fire United is excited to announce that we will participate in the Elite 64 league for the Fall 2023/24 Season. This year, we have also been accepted into the Boys Elite 64 league.

The USYS National League ELITE 64 is a program for players age 13U and older boys and girls who desire to play in highly competitive environments where they can showcase their talent and get additional exposure for collegiate opportunities. AFU teams compete in the Southeast Conference against teams from North Carolina, Florida and Georgia and participate in showcases and/or post-season playoff events. AFU entered the ELITE 64 program to provide players the opportunity to compete on a national platform and gain experience in a regional and national format.

Each of these Elite 64 clubs share a collective vision and provide an unmatched gameday experience, in addition to maintaining the highest standards, both on and off the field, to maximize the opportunities available to their players.

About Elite 64

USYS National League Elite 64 features year-round competition in six age groups (13U, 14U, 15U, 16U, 17U and 18/19U) for the top 64 boys clubs and top 64 girls clubs in the country. The annual competition calendar includes the league season, national showcases, and the Elite 64 National Finals.

Thanks to partnerships with world leaders in their respective fields, Elite 64 players have access to tools and technology to capture key information that can be shared with college coaches and professional scouts — making every game a recruitable moment.

As the elite club-based platform in the USYS National League, Elite 64 clubs have access to other USYS and National League competitions, such as the National League Conferences and National League P.R.O., to create a complete developmental pathway within a single organization.

The USYS National League debuted in 2007 and has provided a competitive national platform for several professional and international players, including Morgan Gautrat (née Brian), Rose Lavelle, Samantha Mewis, Emily Sonnett, Daryl Dike, Jeremy Ebobisse, Jack Harrison, Jordan Morris and Walker Zimmerman.
