DELAWARE UNITED FC Objectives
& Mission
The
mission of Delaware
United FC is to develop great people and
enhance the communities in which we operate through soccer.
The vision of Delaware United FC is to prepare
our young players with the ability to play soccer both technically
and tactically, in a safe and constructive environment while participating at the highest
level of regional and national youth competition.
Delaware United FC also prepares
players to be successful scholar-athletes in high school and college through education on
healthy lifestyle choices and the college recruiting process. Delaware United FC is recognized as a

DELAWARE UNITED FC Philosophy
Delaware United FC was established
for the specific purpose of developing a competitive youth soccer program whose goals are
to achieve state, regional, and national soccer championship titles, as well as developing
players capable of receiving college scholarships based on their playing ability and
academic achievement. However, realization of these goals must be accomplished within the
proper framework by instilling character, self-esteem, confidence, and sportsmanship
within the youth athlete.
Achievement
of these lofty and worthwhile objectives within the appropriate environment can only be
reached through the mature behavior and the exemplary conduct of the coaches, parents, and
officials of the team. Their relationship with the players must be of the highest ethical
and moral standards and be based upon concern and just principles that ensures equitable
treatment prevails in all circumstances.
An
aggressive desire for victory combined with the procedural and graduated development of
soccer skills through exceptional coaching and advanced training techniques is of
paramount importance. Nevertheless, realization by all that soccer remains only a game is
an inherent aspect of the philosophy of the team that must always be recognized.
Delaware United FC and our coaching
staff strive to attract players and parents with these common interests:
Create an environment in which players can reach their full potential and achieve
the self-confidence and positive self-esteem necessary to be successful both on and off
the soccer field.
Develop individual skills and team tactics to enable players and the team to
compete at the state, regional, and national levels.
Prepare and assist college bound players in obtaining playing opportunities and
scholarships.
Guidance of prospective college student-athletes and young professionals.
Promote the game of soccer.
