North Alabama SC's Pre-Competitive soccer program is devoted to the enjoyment and development of youth soccer players within North Alabama communities without an emphasis on travel or competitive play levels. The purpose of Pre-Competitive soccer is to provide an opportunity for players at ALL levels to have fun, learn the sport, develop life skills, and develop a LOVE for the game.

North Alabama SC is a family-oriented soccer organization that provides an opportunity to play organized soccer at the Pre-Competitive levels for players at ages 3-8 years old. We offer programs that place the focus on the development of the whole player within a team environment. North Alabama SC is committed to providing holistic player development through a child-centered environment for each individual player while offering players, their families and coaches an enjoyable and FUN soccer experience. We are dedicated to helping players reach their full potential while fostering a love of the game.

Coaching

The benefit of the North Alabama SC Pre-Competitive Program is the support of our professional coaching staff. Volunteer parent coaches are supported by our dedicated Pre-Competitive Director and staff coaches for practices and games.
