HISTORY

Chattanooga FC hosted a soccer summit in 2012 with 30 of the city’s top soccer coaches to discuss how best to raise the quality of youth players in Chattanooga. That summit led to a more unified system across the city led by Chattanooga FC. A new youth select club called Chattanooga FC Academy emerged. In 2014, two rec organizations Redoubt and North River merged under Chattanooga FC Academy as a way to promote quality players into the Academy. Also in 2014, East Ridge Futbol Club merged its select soccer program under CFCA followed by Middle Valley in 2016,  creating one large club that can put the city's best players in one organization.  

VISION

CFC Academy’s vision is to foster a stronger community in Chattanooga by building relationships through the sport of soccer, the world’s game.

MISSION STATEMENT

CFC Academy develops soccer players of a wide range of ages in the Chattanooga region through a unified system of coaches, teams, training, and facilities. Working alongside the Chattanooga community, we serve all youth, regardless of race, creed or socioeconomic background- creating progressive and innovative opportunities for them to grow and excel in soccer skills, in the delight of play, in the discipline of team work, and in the benefits of dedication to the sport.

Chattanooga FC Academy offers a partial Scholarship Program to eligible players, which will act to reduce a Club player's Club Fees.  These Scholarships are awarded based on financial need.

In addition to the Scholarship Program, the Club will seek to identify fundraising opportunities and will entertain sponsorships of players or the Club by local and regional businesses.  If you know of an organization who may want to sponsor a CFCA player or the Club, please contact editor@chattanoogasoccer.com.
