Individual Development
For The Betterment Of The Team
Why Project 208 FC
Project 208 FC provides an experience unlike any being offered in the Wood River Valley - one focused in individual development for the betterment of the team. We develop players focused on the technical, tactical, physiological and social/ psychological principles set forth by US Soccer.
Project 208 FC, a non-profit, volunteer run organization, promotes and develops the character of young athletes through the sport of soccer. By cultivating the growth of each player, enhancing her abilities and encouraging the achievement of individual goals, we strive to foster sportsmanship and the spirit of fellowship among all our members.
Project 208 FC is committed to providing facilities, coaches, and opportunities for its players that will assist them in achieving their goals. Key among these are opportunities for individual skill development, health and fitness, teamwork and fun. We encourage each player to experience the thrill of competition at the level that meets their goals, enjoy the camaraderie of friends, and learn important life lessons through the shared experience of sports.
