In the summer of 2006 the Spartanburg Arsenal Futbol Club (SAFC) was created to offer an alternative to the other soccer clubs in the Spartanburg County area. The club was formed with the belief that highly competitive youth soccer does not have to come at a high price. At the Arsenal we also believed that there was a portion of the kids in our area who had the ability and drive to play select soccer, but either did not know it existed or were discouraged by the cost so we went about finding them and providing them the oppurtunity to compete.

The goal of Spartanburg Arsenal FC is to promote good sportsmanship and teamwork in our players through the development of their soccer skills. Our coaching staff will provide positive role models for the players during both games and practices. The player's soccer skills will be developed to allow him/her to contribute to the team approach of playing "the beautiful game." Emphasis of the individual's contribution to the team's goal of playing as a unified group will promote both the skills of the player and the interaction of the player with other team members to achieve a common goal.
