Who We Are
Who We Are
FC Arizona is a highly competitive and community driven professional soccer club in the state of Arizona. As a club, we adhere ourselves in the growth and development of our players and our coaches to the highest standards.
At FC Arizona, we educate our coaches to deliver our program and product to allow our players to compete and progress to a higher level by following our club curriculum and player development pathway. Our program is designed to allow our players to express themselves and grow as individuals both on and off the pitch.
We believe our club values and ambitions will enable all players of equal opportunity to participate in an environment that will not only grow them as athletes though also develop them as well-rounded young individuals. Good manners, respect for the game, and humility towards teammates, competitors, coaches, and referees are all hallmarks of the players in our program.
Creating a successful soccer athlete requires certain characteristics and personality traits when developing our young player and as a club we pride ourselves in our authenticity and integrity to fulfill this without our program and structure.

Covid Guidelines
Covid-19 Guidelines
As we are gradually getting our sessions back up and running with your teams and your coaches, we as a club are continuing to be committed and dedicated to making sure you are all feeling comfortable and safe on your return to action at the fields.
We are still following the guidelines and procedures of the governor and those within the ASA association, of which we hope will continue to be loosened accordingly to enable our soccer to return to normal sooner than later. For COVID definitions and responsibilities for individuals, clubs, and teams as it relates to what is required if an individual has close contact exposure, symptoms, or a positive result please refer to the ASA website (click here). Regardless of which may be the situation notifying your coach and our club must be a top priority.
In the meantime, the FC Arizona Technical Staff have put together our very own FC Arizona COVID-19 Safety Guidelines and procedures. We feel these will offer you a greater appreciation and bigger outlook on how to sustain more adaptable and effective social distancing and hygiene examples, beginning from the home and carrying to the field.
We have created one for our players, our coaches, and also our parents because we as a community club appreciate and are forever grateful to you for your support and loyalty. Stay safe and healthy and keep up as much exercise and fitness as you possibly can.
