RECreational soccer
FC Westlake’s Recreational Soccer Program is designed to give young players a fun, welcoming, and positive introduction to the game. Through an organized, enjoyable, and safe experience, players take their first step on their soccer journey while developing fundamental skills, building confidence, making new friends, and discovering a love for the sport in a less competitive environment.
Our in-house program offers Fall and Spring seasons, with teams coached by dedicated volunteer coaches at both practices and games. Our Recreational Director oversees the program and provides our volunteer coaches with coaching education, resources, and on-field support, giving them the tools and framework to create meaningful experiences that develop players both on and off the field.

FC WESTLAKE RISE
EVERY PLAYER DESERVES A PLACE ON THE FIELD.
FC Westlake Rise is a space where children with special needs can play, connect, build confidence, and experience the joy of soccer. Designed with an emphasis on inclusion, Rise gives every player the opportunity to be active, try new things, and feel supported on the field.
Each session focuses on fun, encouragement, movement, and connection, with activities designed to meet players where they are. Whether learning new soccer skills, playing games, or simply enjoying time on the field, players are encouraged to participate at their own pace while building confidence and creating meaningful connections along the way.
