Paladin Soccer Club

Play Club, Play Paladin!

Paladin Soccer Club (Paladin SC) is a competitive, team oriented program designed to develop and enhance the individual and team skills needed to compete at a higher level. Our vision and pledge is to provide the best coaching and player experience through effective program development and to create a positive culture in soccer by executing on the Paladin Club Motto of Faith, Family, Fun and Fight.

Club soccer is an advanced, competitive soccer program for boys and girls and runs August – April, with tryouts held every May. Teams are led by experienced, licensed coaches who will train the athletes on the advanced technical and tactical methodologies of soccer. Athletes are exposed to advanced technical skills, fitness and performance, formational tactics and video review to truly focus on developing the whole player. Club soccer teams compete in local and regional soccer tournaments and register in Arizona Soccer Association Open Leagues and Advanced Leagues.

While club soccer competition breeds intensity, we believe as a Christian-based organization that club sports should be played the right way. Our club soccer teams display integrity, sportsmanship, respect, kindness and ultimately a Christ-like attitude on and off the pitch. Prayer is cornerstone of each of our club soccer teams as well as an outreach to the teams we compete against.
