THE KEYSTONE FC PHILOSOPHY FOR FORMING TEAMS:

Our mission is to develop high quality soccer players by providing a comprehensive soccer experience.  We believe we accomplish that mission, in part, by forming the most competitive teams we can at each age and skill level. 


In certain cases, we may ask a player to play “up” for the season (meaning to play with and against kids born in the prior birth year). We will make those decisions based on what is best for the development of the player and will do so only after consultation with the player’s family and approval from the appropriate Director of Coaching and age group coaches.

Girls Academy tryouts for the 2024-2025 season are now live.  Please visit our Tryout Page for more information.

FEES

OVERVIEW

Fees are based on a full soccer year (August through June) and are all-inclusive with no additional fees added, uniforms and travel are not included.


Each total fee can be broken down into a commitment fee and 4-6 team fee installment payments. Upon checking out you will be offered an opportunity to utilize an installment plan or pay the team fees in full. The commitment fee is required to hold a player’s spot.


All commitment fees are non-refundable once paid. Team fees may be adjusted at the discretion of the Executive Director and Director of Soccer in specific circumstances (long-term injury or relocation).


All families are required to volunteer 4-hours per year per player.  Volunteer fees can be bought out and are included in the total fee.


Failure to remain current on your financial obligations to Keystone FC will result in the player being removed from training and games until all financial commitments are up to date.


If joining Keystone FC after the start of the season fees are subject to change.
