Why Choose Niagara United Football Club?
Affordability: Partnerships with Niagara PAL, the Niagara Falls City School District and the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation allow us to provide great training and facilities at a cost that is accessible to all families. In short, you don’t need to spend a thousand per year for your child to be part of a team and develop skill and a love for soccer.
Flexibility: Yes, your child can and should participate in other sports and activities. We understand that one sport should not take over a family’s life. Coaches are willing to work with committed families and reasonably accommodate busy schedules.
Community: Our well-maintained home fields are Town of Niagara Veterans Park and Niagara Falls High School Athletic Turf, and we welcome players from all over Western NY! Our players have the opportunity to spread the love of soccer and expand their horizons. They can choose to coach younger players in Niagara PAL recreational and house soccer programs: many do, and they love it. Players are also part of the greater Niagara PAL Community, and are welcome to participate in those activities throughout the year as well.
Great Soccer: We focus on player development and sportsmanship. Our teams play at all levels of competitive play, and our teams are successful! Our volunteer coaches are certified, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. We keep ourselves up to date on best practices in coaching and training.
