About Players First Club Licensing

Players First is a branded, holistic club soccer experience for parents and players, which emphasizes the development of each individual to his or her full potential, and helps parents make better choices about where their children should play. This is youth soccer’s “Good Housekeeping Seal” and all Players First-licensed clubs stand out locally and nationally as improving the club soccer experience.

Being a member of a Players First club signifies that we are an organization who have reached very high standards and are committed to providing support in five key areas: Club Development, Coaching Development, Player Development, Parent Engagement & Education and Player Health & Safety.  It also means we create a positive, holistic experience for every child participating in the club.
