Our Mission
Rebels FC is committed to providing a premier youth soccer experience that stands out for its unique approach:
- Grassroots Emphasis: We focus on the foundational elements of soccer, ensuring that every player develops a strong technical and tactical understanding of the game. Our grassroots programs are designed to foster a lifelong love for soccer.
- Community-Centric Approach: Unlike many clubs that require extensive travel, we keep our activities local. This minimizes travel distance, making it easier for families to participate and support their young athletes.
- Multi-Sport Encouragement: At Rebels FC, we recognize the benefits of playing multiple sports. We encourage our players to explore various athletic opportunities. This promotes overall physical development and reduces the risk of burnout.
- Certified Volunteer Coaches: Our coaches are passionate parent volunteers who bring a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the field. Each coach is licensed by US Soccer, ensuring that our players receive high-quality training in a supportive environment.
About Us
Rebels Futbol Club is a youth travel soccer program focused on providing cost effective soccer while encouraging players to be well rounded individuals. We started as one team and a handful of volunteers and have grown to fifteen teams supported by dozens of volunteers and US Licensed coaches while continuing to foster a family-oriented environment.
Our History
In 2014, Chadd Martin and Pete Fatone were coaching a local boys' team. As the club prepared their teams to move up to 11v11, it became clear that the team would be split up. Rather than leaving some players without a team, the coaches decided to create a new, independent club and team, the Rebels.
Inspired by the Euskaltel team colors in the Tour de France, the Rebels chose orange as their team colors.
What started as a single team to provide the players the opportunity to play soccer at a higher level while staying cost-effective, quickly caught on as the club grew each year. The club currently includes 15 teams but maintains the same mission.
Our Mission
To provide a club soccer experience for players, parents and volunteers that offers a cost-effective approach to developing players and competing against the local competition in a safe, family-oriented environment while allowing flexibility to participate in other youth activities.
Our Vision
At RFC Rebels, we are inspired to provide a unique club soccer experience that allows players and parents to LOVE SOCCER while also being able to love the rest of the things going on in their lives.
