OUR CLUB
Established in 1975, OTUSA was established with the objective to create a positive experience for kids while allowing them to learn sportsmanship, increase physical fitness, and develop soccer skills. With over 500 athletes and dozens of dedicated coaches and volunteers, OTUSA is one of the most respected soccer programs in New Jersey.
OTUSA also hosts the annual Jersey Shore Champions Cup every June. Since its inception in 1975, the tournament hosts more than 240 teams from across the Northeast every year. Funds from the tournament are used to subsidize programs to further the development of our players, such as a free foot skills and dedicated goalkeeper development programs. The investment in development has paid off with many OTUSA teams competing at the highest level of competition across the country.

OUR PROGRAMS
Grassroots
Grassroots is a year round program with a focus on small sided games; 4v4 and 3v3. Our grassroots is made up of U5,U6, U7 age groups. This division introduces players to soccer and prepares them for further play. We want to encourage a sense of purpose and belonging on the field that only small sided games can give at this age. Multiple touches and repetitions of scenarios will aid in a child’s development and they will adopt these qualities through this type of game play.
Dynamic movement is encouraged and our 3v3 and 4v4 methodology provides the conditions to learn basic technical skills of dribbling, passing, receiving and shooting as well as basic triangle and diamond shapes. More Information
Travel Teams
The Travel Program accommodates both boys and girls soccer teams from ages U8 to U17. Our teams compete in MOSA and EDP soccer leagues thourght the region. Teams also compete in area tournaments and the NJYS State Cup.
Each team is managed by a paid professional and supported by parent volunteers. Player and Team development is overseen by OTUSA Director of Coaching Darren Spurrier of Spurrier PST.
OTUSA fosters an environment where players of different levels of technical ability can develop in a competitive environment. As result of this philosophy many of our small -sided age groups have multiple teams Player Tryouts and ID Sessions
