About Germantown Soccer Club

MISSION
The Germantown Soccer Club was founded to promote and advance youth soccer development in the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia. The Club’s primary aim is to increase youth participation in the most popular sport in the world through outreach, training and competition. We also aim to challenge our players and to instill both soccer and character skills (leadership, sportsmanship, and positive self-esteem) that will last the rest of their lives.
 

STRATEGY
GSC achieves this mission by focusing on soccer fundamentals in young players [ages 4-12] before they enter a competitive environment. Germantown Soccer Club takes the time needed to do it right. While we offer skill development and recreational games, we refrain from joining competitive leagues until our players are fully ready. Ball skills, agility, footwork, teamwork and passion for playing are key to developing solid players. We will, however, occasionally participate in tournaments to gain experience. Another key strategy is maintaining quality in coaching. The Club has slowly developed its coaching capacity such that the organization has been able to expand its program.


VISION
The Germantown Soccer Club’s vision for its future work is ambitious; the organization will expand its reach while maintaining a high quality program.
