About Us
Who We Are
Florida West F.C. (FWFC) is the result of the SWFL community finally coming together to create a product that is poised to compete with the very best teams in Florida and the Nation overall. Bringing numerous successful Clubs together to create a single powerhouse has been in the thoughts of the entire SWFL Soccer community for countless years. With a strong leadership and vision, we made it a reality !
Mission Statement
An unrelenting pursuit of professionalism and success for our Players and Coaches, both on and off the field. To continue to lead the way in SWFL by providing the optimal environment for Youth Athletes of all levels in order to ensure them the opportunity to be the best that they can be. To provide a Club structure that is one of cohesion and alignment in respect to achieving our collective goals.
Soccer Philosophy
Our defined style of play and coaching sets us apart from most other Soccer Clubs . FWFC is known for our modern style of play as well as the attention to detail when it comes to our approach towards the development of our players. Many Clubs advertise their style of play as “possession based”. However FWFC believe in possession with a purpose and educating our players in great depth in regards to what that purpose might be, in keeping with the specific situations they might face.
Club culture and identity
We expect our Players and Coaches to show passion for the Club and the sport whenever they are wearing the FWFC Uniform. We expect that every training session is held to the highest standard and every opportunity to perform is taken with both hands. We expect constant and consistent development born out of hard work and dedication, including an abundance of extra work during their “off time”.
Core Values
FWFC Core Values are fundamental part of how we perform. These core values help set the standard as well as encourage our Players and Coaches to maintain the highest of standards. Players and Coaches are urged to make these core values an integral part of their soccer lives in order to help them navigate this journey with maximum success.
Professionalism
Professional values should not just be conserved for the professionals. Behaving in a professional manner will guarantee that all situations we encounter will undeniably result in the best outcome possible. Coaches will set the example for all players to follow.
Dedication
Being part of an Elite level Soccer Club cannot be successfully achieved without dedication. The time and effort needed in order to achieve what we set out to do cannot be replaced by any amount of ability or skill.
Ownership
Although we at FWFC are able to provide our Players and Coaches with the optimal environment for development and success, the individual will need to take possession of their own destiny. By taking ownership, the individual will be much more willing to strive to be the best that they can be as well as correct as many issues that might be standing in the way of success as possible.
Distinction
With so many players and coaches looking to achieve the same thing, we feel as though encouraging an excellence that sets those individuals (and teams) apart from the rest is extremely important. Thinking outside of the box, going the extra mile and developing a contrast of excellence between yourself and others is what we expect from our FWFC family.
Intensity
Defined as “providing an extreme degree of strength, force, energy or feeling” is what we expect from our FWFC family when it comes to their passion and participation for all things FWFC. By approaching all sessions, games, events with the right type of intensity it will once again be a shorter route to the success and achievement desired.
