Building passion and expertise in every player TO OUR SOCCER COMMUNITY FC United has been an integral part of my life since I was nine years old when I started in the Trevian Soccer program. As I progressed into FC United, the club continued to provide me with a platform for growth, both in the sport and as a person. FC United has helped mold me into the person I am today and for that, I am incredibly grateful and have dedicated my career to give back to the next generation of athletes. As a club, we have had some exciting changes in recent years and are thrilled to embark on the next phase of our story. Through all of our growth and progress, the club s mission remains the same: provide an unmatched soccer experience for all our players and families. Our members deserve a top-notch performance on planning, and consistent execution. Our team works hard to achieve these goals for each and every player in our club.
