At AC Salisbury...

Our primary goal is to cultivate a love for the game of soccer among our athletes. Through the collaboration of like-minded coaches and our player-centric model, we aspire to create an environment where the joy and excitement of playing soccer are paramount.

 

Our ultimate aim is to develop not only the best athletes but also the best individuals, instilling values of sportsmanship, teamwork, and personal growth in each player, overall . . .

​

Helping them Rise to their Highest Potential.

AC Salisbury is proud to promote a player-centric development model that prioritizes individual player growth over team achievements.  Although this model hasn’t necessarily been promoted in our area, we are not alone in this initiative – it is the pathway created by the US Soccer Federation, our governing body.

​

We all have a part to play in this.

​

100% of our head AND assistant coaches are certified US Soccer Federation coaches. We are committed to growth and learning just as we expect our players to be. In addition to soccer-specific training, as a part of the certification process, coaches must:

  • Complete a background check

  • Complete ‘Heads Up’  training – a program developed by the CDC to help coaches respond to concussions. (If your child experiences a concussion outside of soccer, please notify your coach)

  • Complete US Center for SafeSport Certification. SafeSport is dedicated solely to ending sexual, physical, and emotional abuse on behalf of athletes everywhere. To learn more and to find out how you can play your part, A free online parent training is provided: https://uscenterforsafesport.org/parents/

​

We ask that our parents take the Sideline Project Pledge.

(https://thesidelineproject.com/take-pledge/#/ ):

​

       Youth sports belong to the players.

  • I pledge to honor the youth sports experience of the players with supportive, not distracting, behavior.

  • I pledge to eliminate hostile behavior targeted towards players, coaches, parents, and most notably referees.

  • I pledge to honor players, to respect referees, and to Make Youth Sports Better.

Our Culture

01

Our culture will serve as the heart and soul of everything we do. We pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative environment that embodies the true spirit of what it means to be a club. When players join us, they become part of a tight-knit family where support, encouragement, and growth are paramount.

02

Our culture is defined by our commitment to providing unparalleled training opportunities. Unlike traditional setups, our players have access to a diverse array of coaches, each bringing their unique expertise and perspective to the table. This approach allows us to tailor training sessions to meet the individual needs and characteristics of each player, ensuring that they receive the personalized attention required to thrive.

03

Central to our culture is the belief that every player has the potential to excel and develop into the best version of themselves. We are dedicated to creating an environment where players are encouraged to push their limits, take risks, and continually strive for improvement. Whether it's mastering a new skill or overcoming a challenge, we empower our players to embrace the journey of growth and self-discovery.
