Recreation

DCFC Youth Recreation Soccer

The Delaware County Futbol Club (DCFC) recreation program is run “in-house,” with teams competing against other DCFC recreation teams. The recreation program provides an opportunity for players of all skill levels. Our recreational program is open to children who born 2022 through birth year 2007-Aug in Delaware and surrounding counties.

Players learn about teamwork and sportsmanship while having fun! Each player receives a team shirt included with registration.

One of our goals as a club is to increase our players' development and love of the game. Our game formats are structured to increase the number of passes and goals along with opportunities to improve dribbling skills in 1v1 encounters. The more players are involved during the match play, the more they will have fun and develop their skills.



DCFC utilizes volunteer coaches to help make this program a success. Coaching is easy! Prior to the season, coaches will receive an invitation to join the MOJO app - a customized practice plan for coaches. In addition, practice plans can be found in the Coaches' Corner on our website.
