Announcing the Formation of the UDA Parent Advisory Board (PAB)

We are pleased to announce the launch of the UDA Parent Advisory Board (PAB) — a new initiative led by a committed group of parent volunteers who are passionate about supporting the success and well-being of all student-athletes at the UDA Soccer Academy.
​
The PAB functions as an independent, parent-led advisory body. While officially recognized by UDA, the board operates autonomously and is not managed by Academy staff. No UDA staff members serve on the board, making this a truly grassroots, family-driven initiative.

The board’s mission is to foster open and meaningful dialogue between parents and UDA leadership, offering a collaborative space for questions, feedback, and ideas that can enhance the student experience. Currently in its foundational phase, the PAB is actively developing its structure, goals, and procedures to best serve the UDA community.

The PAB maintains regular communication with UDA Program Director, Steve Lilley, as well as other Academy staff members, to ensure transparency and alignment.

Parents are welcome to reach out to the PAB with questions, suggestions, or expressions of interest in getting involved by emailing [email protected].

As fellow UDA parents, the PAB asks that all communications remain respectful and constructive as we work together to enrich the Academy journey for every student-athlete.

Together, we can make a meaningful impact.
