Introduction
In January 2013, team FC Surge was founded as a women’s soccer franchise for purposes of joining the Women’s Premier Soccer League (“WPSL”). The WPSL is a national amateur league with over seventy teams across the nation, making it the largest women’s soccer league in the world, and the leading amateur soccer league in the United States. The League was formed in 1998 and serves as a stepping stone for elite and aspiring professional and international-level players. Many former and current U.S. National and International Team players have played on WPSL teams including: Abby Wambach and Brandi Chastain. Please visit www.wpsl.info for more information about the League. Although we are a new organization, the FC Surge consists of a very talented core of experienced and skilled players who have competed in the WPSL for several years. Our players range in age from 16 years to up to 30+, and include current college, post-college, and international players. With both veterans and young talent, it is our hope that the FC Surge will become a verifiable force to be reckoned with in the emergent world of women’s soccer.
Our Mission Statement
The FC Surge is dedicated to promoting and enhancing the development of women’s soccer in the South Florida region. In addition to establishing ourselves as a top contender in the WPSL, our primary objective is to provide an opportunity for local girls to grow and develop into talented and dynamic athletes and to equip them with the necessary tools to excel in both soccer and life. By establishing a strong and dependable foundation, we will help our young athletes obtain scholarships and find placements at the top colleges and universities across the country, while providing our more experienced athletes with a highly competitive environment where they can continue to flourish and advance the sport of women’s soccer.
