About the WASA Eagles FC:

Ø       Founded in 1997, we have a commitment to develop the player’s soccer skills to their greatest potential AND to foster an attitude of respect (please see codes of conduct and philosophy on our website).

Ø       Our coaches provide mature and stable leadership, dedicated to the long term development of players.

Ø       We offer free goalkeeper training sessions throughout the year.

Ø       While being very competitive, we continually strive to keep it FUN!

 
Rob Smith and Training "Crew"

Rob Smith is our Director of Player Development. Rob is a former member of the USA Olympic team and the Columbus Crew. Rob,along with several current and former Columbus Crew players and local college standouts, will provide each team with weekly training sessions in the fall and spring (built into the fee structure).

Joining the WASA Eagles will likely save you time & money compared with most other select soccer clubs.

• Fees, per player, range from $450 to 550 per outdoor season, depending on the team, and includes everything except indoor soccer (optional) and uniform. Scholarship funds are available for those in need. Please ask!

• Plus, we maintain a limited and what we believe to be age appropriate out-of-town tournament schedule, which saves on travel/hotel/food (typical out-of-town = Dayton, Cincinnati, or other Ohio tournaments).

• The quality of instruction and degree of competitiveness is high … but our fees are not.

Exciting new opportunity for U12 girls, U13 boys and girls, U14 and 15 boys

The Classics Eagles alliance will provide the best in training and coaching and a team that is the best possible fit for the individual player.

What about conflicts with other sports?  
We piloted a new multi-sport team in spring '08, and have expanded it for those interested.  The idea is to embrace and encourage kids who are involved in football, basketball, hockey, baseball, lacrosse, bmx, swimming, snowboarding, skateboarding, band, et al.  The concept is to play in fewer tournaments, practice less, and be more flexible than the “norm” with participation expectations – particularly for 8 to 12 year olds.  It enables kids to explore other activities, while playing very competitive select soccer.
