Welcome to the National Academy League!

The Boston Bolts South Shore region was established under the guidance of Don Whitaker in 2015. By providing exceptional training in a professional environment, the South Shore region ensures that the Bolts provide a great local soccer experience for young players throughout Plymouth, Norfolk, Bristol & Barnstable county. Our South Shore staff has a wealth of experience, with a proven track record of player development with two teams claiming USYS State Championships in 2023!

We are excited to be the home of the Boston Bolts South Shore NAL boys program! The NAL platform establishes a high-level pre-professional training environment for top student-athletes who aim to play in national events and compete with teams from across the country. It provides meaningful games in a proven environment, designed to aid in those players’ development & help them transition to the collegiate level, while allowing all clubs an opportunity to compete amongst each other in regionalized competition.

At the Bolts we have a very clear developmental philosophy that aims to encourage creative, dynamic thinkers who are brave on the pitch. No matter where you might be as a player, our environment aims to instill a you vs you mentality. This means that each day, players work on being better versions of themselves, instead of comparing themselves to others. This belief system has helped the South Shore grow and become a region that supports multiple high level platforms with teams in the NAL and USYS National League!

Join us for any of our upcoming programs and experience The Bolts Way! Dedicated to developing young soccer players from all backgrounds, our unique programs ensure that players learn the fundamentals in an engaging, exciting and enjoyable environment! Our age-appropriate training sessions are key to developing the next generation of Bolts players and are designed to ignite a passion for soccer!
