DME Academy Joins The UPSL
The 25/26 UPSL Season Is Here!
DME Academy Sarasota is officially stepping into the competitive arena of the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL), announcing its entry into the Premier Division for the Fall 2025 season.
The Sarasota squad will join forces with our program in Daytona, which has seen rapid success in the league. After an impressive campaign in Division 1, the Daytona team is slated to move up to the UPSL Premier Division in the 2025-26 season—marking another major milestone in DME’s rise within the U.S. soccer landscape.
With both locations now fielding teams at the Premier level of UPSL competition, DME is uniquely positioned to offer a full developmental ladder that supports players at varying stages of their soccer journey.
The Roster Breakdown
We’re building a roster focused on both success and development, intentionally blending 2010-born players through senior-level athletes. This age diversity will create a competitive environment for younger players while leveraging the leadership and experience of seasoned pros to guide, mentor, and elevate the entire team.
The Coaching Card
The team will be lead by Coach Jake Dube, formerly Head coach at St. Pete Aztecs and current coach of the 2008/07 and 2011 boys teams at DME Academy. Assisting Coach Jake is Assistant Director of Coaching John Taylor who leads the 2010 and 2012 boys at DME. Both coaches were formally at New College of Florida on their staff.
