HARRISON, N.J. (May 29th, 2026) – Red Bull New York and Brooklyn Italians Soccer Club are excited to announce the expansion of their ongoing youth development partnership ahead of the Fall 2026 season.
The expanded collaboration will see the New York Red Bulls Youth Programs support five Brooklyn Italians age groups from U9 through U13, continuing to provide players with a structured and professional development environment built around the Red Bulls methodology.
As part of the expansion, players will now participate in an enhanced three-session weekly training model, including a Friday supplemental skills development session focused on maximizing technical repetitions and individual player growth during key developmental years.
The partnership reflects both organizations’ shared vision of creating a long-term player development environment that prioritizes technical growth, confidence on the ball, game understanding, and a positive learning culture.
“The newly extended partnership expansion with NYRB Youth Programs solidifies the trust and ambition between our organizations,” said Antonio Superbia Jr., Technical Director of Brooklyn Italians SC. “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.
“With a three-session weekly development structure, including a Friday skills development session, we are confident our players will receive a high level of coaching and training during their most important foundational development phase. This partnership helps set our players up for future success in their continued athletic development and overall soccer experience.”
In addition to player development, the partnership will continue to provide coach education opportunities, collaborative club support, and developmental resources designed to strengthen the club’s long-term sporting structure.
“Our goal is to continue creating environments where players can develop consistently while enjoying the game and building confidence every day,” said Dimitri Serrano, Regional Manager, Youth Programs at Red Bull New York. “Brooklyn Italians SC has a strong culture and history within youth soccer, and we are excited to continue growing this partnership by
expanding opportunities for players and supporting the club’s long-term vision for development.”
The expanded partnership further strengthens both organizations’ commitment to supporting youth soccer development throughout Brooklyn and providing players and families with a positive and professional soccer experience.
