About KC Fire FC

Our Foundation

Established in 2016, KC Fire FC was founded by experienced, USSF-licensed coaches dedicated to providing accessible, high-quality soccer training within a positive and developmental environment. We prioritize player growth and team cohesion, offering a competitive alternative for families in Johnson County, Kansas. Our coaching model ensures direct parental involvement, fostering a strong connection between coaches, players, and families.

Our Philosophy

KC Fire FC is committed to developing well-rounded individuals, both on and off the field. We believe soccer is more than just a game; it’s a platform for building character, fostering teamwork, and cultivating critical thinking. Our experienced coaches, with backgrounds in high-level soccer, focus on:

  • Player Development: Providing comprehensive training to prepare players for high school and collegiate competition.
  • Character Building: Emphasizing the life skills learned through soccer, such as problem-solving, decision-making, and resilience.
  • Physical Fitness: Promoting agility, coordination, endurance, and speed through dynamic training and gameplay.
  • Teamwork and Social Skills: Cultivating cooperation, communication, and positive interactions within a team setting.
  • Confidence and Decision-Making: Encouraging players to develop self-assurance and make informed choices under pressure.

We strive to create a supportive and empowering environment where players thrive, learn, and develop a lifelong passion for the beautiful game. Our commitment to consistent team structure allows players to build strong bonds and experience sustained growth over multiple seasons.

Our Teams

While many clubs prioritize the quantity of teams, KC Fire FC distinguishes itself by focusing on the quality of our teams. Competing largely within the Heartland Soccer League, our teams have achieved significant success, securing numerous league and tournament titles, along with Futsal Regional and National Qualifier victories. Our growth philosophy is organic: we will only form new teams when we have a qualified coach dedicated to their development and a clear demand from our families, ensuring a consistently high standard across the club.

Training Sessions

At KC Fire FC, our teams benefit from excellent training facilities at the Olathe District Athletic Center (ODAC), featuring both premium turf fields. Depending on the team, practice could be any weekday from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm.

Recognizing the unique needs of goalkeepers, KC Fire FC provides dedicated, professional goalie training as part of our comprehensive program. This valuable training, led by a member of our coaching staff, is included in club fees and conveniently scheduled once a week during the Fall and Spring seasons on an existing training night. We believe in the importance of well-rounded development and encourage our goalies to also gain valuable field experience with their primary or another KC Fire FC team.

Winter Soccer

At KC Fire FC, we champion the benefits of multi-sport participation for developing well-rounded athletes. We believe exploring different sports enhances soccer skills and encourages diverse interests. However, we also cater to players who desire continuous soccer engagement by offering two winter soccer sessions: one typically featuring futsal or indoor soccer, and a second focusing on the outdoor format. Players have the flexibility to choose one or both sessions, allowing for rest or focus on other activities. Both winter soccer options are integrated into our fee structure at no extra charge.

Fees and Costs

At KC Fire FC, we know soccer is about more than just winning; it’s about the life skills kids learn by being part of a team. We also understand that playing sports can get expensive, especially if you want to try different things.

That’s why we work hard to keep our costs down. We’ve made our fees simple and clear – no hidden surprises. For a player, you’re looking at between $900 and $1,300 for everything. That covers league fees, tournaments, club costs, your coach, practice fields, goalie training, your full uniform (two jerseys, shorts, socks), and state registration. The exact price depends on things like how many tournaments your team plays and how many players are on the roster.
