You've seen your child play soccer and know how much fun they have playing the sport. Whatever their age or current skill level, you see a growing passion for soccer in your child. They enjoy learning, competing, and are ready to benefit from an in-depth youth soccer program.
What do you want from a competitive soccer program? San Ramon FC's program provides a supportive learning environment for youth players ready to put in the time and effort needed to thrive. From the U8 Academy through the NPL level of competition, the program's focus is always on competing, learning, character development, and having plenty of fun along the way.
Competitive soccer is a significant commitment for a player and their family. It's important that your family find a program that helps your child grow and develop while providing competitive opportunities to achieve long-term success.
Training and league games are the heart of our program's experience. These are enriched by tournament play, technology tools, team activities, and club events designed to immerse your child in a special soccer experience that builds a foundation of learning, growth, and character development for every player.
San RamonFC's staff is here to help your family and your child's team every step of the way. Whether it's registration, uniforms, training schedules, league play, or club events, the dedicated club staff provides the logistical support to make it happen as smoothly as possible.
To measure success, look deeper, beyond the win/loss column. While the goal will always be to win a match or a competition, it is just one of many signs of success. Kids learning how to compete, committing time and effort to develop their skills, learning to be a good teammate, and having fun are all good indicators of success and of a child's positive soccer experience.
It's more fun on the field. Your child won't benefit if they don't play. Youth soccer can help reinforce the benefits of healthy physical activity, the importance of striving to improve, and the value of being a good teammate. San Ramon FC's efforts to integrate eleven pillars of character into its programs will help your child learn the value of these positive traits too.
“Elements of a child's development cannot be taken in isolation. What you learn and the way you learn things spills over into all of the various parts of a child’s development.
So learning the skills of soccer should not be seen as a separate or inferior branch of learning. In fact, learning the skills of soccer can be as much a part of the whole learning process as studying math or science.”
