San Ramon FC Earns Prominent Recognition As "Players First" Club

As one of 16 new clubs to join the Players First community -- bringing the total to 75 clubs nationwide -- San Ramon FC stands out locally and nationally as improving the club soccer experience for players and parents.

Players First is a branded, holistic club soccer experience for parents and players, which emphasizes the development of each individual to his or her full potential, and helps parents make better choices about where their children should play.

"After a rigorous application process, [San Ramon FC] has proven to provide an exceptional, player-centered environment and upholds the high standards of this license," said Kevin Payne, CEO/Executive of US Club Soccer.

In a letter shared last week with families at San Ramon FC, Payne stated:

"Being a member of a Players First club signifies that you are a part of a club that is providing support in five key areas: Club Development, Coaching Development, Player Development, Parent Engagement & Education and Player Health & Safety."

San Ramon FC is proud to stand with US Club Soccer to put Players First.

Every youth athlete deserves an environment that helps them achieve their goals – at every level.
