Our Vikings FC COMPETITIVE TEAMS are designed to give our older players a chance to use what they have learned in our Academy Program by playing against other players from around Mobile County in a competitive league. Competitive teams are formed through evaluations, Competitive games are on Saturdays at the Sage Park Soccer Complex and practices are twice a week on Monday and Thursday.

For the Spring season, all players, including those wanting to play in the competitive teams program, MUST REGISTER for the Senior Skills Academy program.

**There will be THREE Evaulation Sessions and you must attend all of them.

Evaluation sessions will be on Sat- Feb 8, 15, and Feb 22**

There will be no other evaluations sessions for competitive teams.

After evaluations, invitations will be extended for players to join the Competitive teams.

Those who accept to join will then pay the additional $50 fee for competitive teams.

Those players who do not make the competitive team will continue on in the Senior Academy program and be place on Academy teams.

Competitive team practice will begin on Mar 10

A parent meeting will be on Saturday Mar 15 to collect all paperwork.

What is the Vikings FC Competitive program?

The Vikings FC Competitive teams are made up of Vikings FC Academy players that have excelled in the Academy Skills program, and want to challenge their skills and progress in the next level of soccer playing.  

The idea behind the competitive league is to take players that have started in the Rec league and want to get to the level of tournament teams by exceeding in the competitive playing arena.  In the competitive league we follow the same USSF’s methodology and philosophy as they would in the Academy. 

All competitive coaches are licensed and extensively trained thru the North American Youth Soccer League (NAYS) and have undergone extensive background checks.

Our Philosophy is “Train to Succeed”, which means we believe we should practice as we play (Practice hard, play hard), and we make it fun while doing it.  We want them to learn and have a desire to compete, but we also want them to enjoy the experience and desire to return until they get to a point at which they feel they’re ready to try out for tournament teams.

Our players will experience the different playing style of many different competitive teams in our league which gives them the opportunity to observe, learn, and adapt as they grow.

The design of competitive teams is to develop them, keep them together, add to the team when players move on and create more teams in the process.  In doing this we teach them to work as a team, communicate as a team, learn to play to other player’s weaknesses, and to build a united front on the field, all while taking pride in the team they’re a part of and community they’re representing.

Our Competitive Teams Director is Chris Adams who has been involved with Mobile soccer for many years, both on the select level and the Rec  level.  He has been with VFC for the past 6 years as our Director of Coaching.
