WHAT IS SGA?
A K-12 ELITE, PRIVATE, SOCCER-FOCUSED SCHOOL BASED IN AUSTIN, TX
A UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY FEATURING A UNIQUE BALANCE OF LIVE TEACHING AND PROVEN ONLINE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES
AUSTIN’S ONLY SOCCER PROGRAM FEATURING DAILY TRAINING WITH REAL PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS
A CONFIDENCE ENGINE, CREATING THE SELF-ASSURANCE TO MEET LIFE’S CHALLENGES HEAD ON, ALIGNED FOR SUCCESS
It’s a 10 month program aligned for success.
SGA is a full 10 month academic and training immersion program designed to give students a unique path to success. We’ve seen firsthand how declining student expectations in a range of traditional educational models have resulted in a youth falling behind. Parents are often forced seek supplementary educational support at a high cost. At SGA we believe in a higher standard. That standard means a more focused 10-month program resulting in a better prepared student body and success for the future.
OUR UNIQUE PROGRAM
We call it our high-performance HYBRID EDUCATIONAL MODEL.
01
EDUCATION
From our caring, certified, live teaching staff, to an amazing and diverse curriculum, to focused learning support for each student, SGA gives your child a truly unique educational environment and the successes that brings.
02
PRO TRAINING
It’s built into our daily schedule… Real training with real professional soccer players. No one else, and we mean no one, can offer you that in Austin. With that much focused, fun training, SGA players see unparalleled growth on the field.
03
LIFE SKILLS
Our goal is to produce young men and women who will overcome any challenges that life throws at them. We aim to develop students that are immune to self doubt and fear of failure. That makes them better individuals and teammates.
We like to say that we are here for greatness. It’s a motto for us and delineates our expectation for everyone at SGA, from our students, to teachers, coaches and staff.
ABOUT OUR FOUNDER
MEET SONNY G
Sonny Alejandro Guadarrama, known as Sonny G, is a retired professional international soccer player, bilingual Major League Soccer sports announcer, community leader, coach, and successful entrepreneur from Austin, Texas.
A two-time All-American, he is widely recognized to have had one of the most successful soccer careers to come out of the greater Austin area. As a young athlete, Sonny played for both the United States Youth National Team and Mexico’s Youth National Team. That led him to a successful 11 year professional stint in Mexico’s La Liga, where he was recognized for his skilled play. He then continued his career in America in the United Soccer League for an additional 4 years.
After retiring, Sonny focused on promoting soccer within the Austin hispanic community and continues to serve as an ambassador for the sport he loves at both the local and national levels. In 2022, his passion for futbol led him to found his own private soccer school, Sonny Guadarrama Academy (SGA). It’s the realization of his dream to provide a high-performance training and academic environment for Austin’s soccer youth. SGA’s unique program features a blend of community service, educational innovation, and next-level soccer training all in a single place for student-athletes and families. When he’s not working, Sonny enjoys painting, spending time with his family, and connecting with his community at large.
