ABOUT US
ALDER FC
Alder Futbol Club provides players in Plain City and the surrounding Northwest Columbus communities with an opportunity to play competitive soccer.
​
We understand that our athletes participate in many sports and activities throughout the year. At Alder FC, we are flexible with our athletes’ (and families) busy schedules. Science tells us that multi-sport athletes display improved health and wellness, including decreased injury rates, improved athletic performance, improved leadership skills and teamwork. Alder FC does not limit top athletes to just soccer!
​
We strive to provide a positive environment for our players where they can develop their technical skills, tactical awareness, and passion for the game of soccer. In short, we want our athletes coaching the next generation of players.
Coaching staff
All Alder FC coaches hold a US Soccer coaching license. We encourage every coach to further their US Soccer education by reimbursing for all associated costs.
More updates coming soon.
