Coaching Rec soccer is an incredible way to show up for your child AND your community --
"I never knew how much I would love coaching my son in soccer. Not knowing much about soccer and having other people's children under my leadership terrified me. To be honest, I was fearful of embarring myself and failing my team, but after the season was over the opposite happened!! Not only did our team grow but I grew as a parent. I made great relationships with other parents as well as their kids. To me, the best benefit was how much closer my son and I became. During that time I became my son's hero. Together we faced our fears. We fought together, we overcame together. Those thing created a stronger bond between us that I will forever be grateful for. I will never have to live in regret of not taking the opportunity to coach my child. It's one of the best decisions I've made as a parent." -FC Richmond Rec Parent/Coach U7 Coed
Come join the fun -- we can’t have Recreational soccer without you!
