Ignite FC
Welcome all, Ignite FC is an American Youth Soccer Club with a style of play modeled from European Football. Based in St. George Utah, in the heart of Greater Zion. We have established ourselves as a local and regional contender. We are not the biggest, we haven’t been around the longest, but we execute to be the best. Our sights are not set on the world stage, our vision is more acute, more precise. Our goals are set, our efforts are united, and our focus is clear. So whether you are for us or against us it makes no difference because we will arrive with our presence felt and our reputation known.
A word to our club family:
Thank you for your love and support, it is felt. We truly strive to make this club feel like family. As we grow together we hope you can gain a sense of ownership and feel that Ignite FC is YOUR club.
A word to our contenders:
We see you. We respect you. We love your sportsmanship and your camaraderie. We appreciate your battles… but, we DO NOT fear you.
Ignite at its Core
- Investment in player development at all levels – Ignite FC’s objective is for each player to have a balanced and fulfilling experience regardless of the level of play
- Offer the best and most committed players a challenging and rewarding enviornment where they can achieve their full potential
- Develop players with a lifelong love, understanding, passion and appreciation for the game of soccer.
- Quality coaching and instruction.
- Reasonable fees – We are a non-profit and strive to keep our fees reasonable and to provide the best value for our members.
- A family oriented environment – Players and staff will make friendships that will last a lifetime.
The foundation of our organization is player development.
The “score” is usually our last focus.
It is possible to be the better team and lose and also possible to be the lesser team and win. We strive to be the better team and win.
Sometimes our wins include the number of passes completed, the ability to compete with integrity, that amazing keeper save, the perfectly threaded pass, or the moment when a player finally crosses the ball properly with their non-dominant foot. Sometimes our wins are big tournament wins, winning a PK shoutout, or simply ending a training session with the same amount of balls we started with.
Winning at any metric is the compliment to proper player development.
Respect – Respect for ALL, on and off the pitch. Sport has the uncanny ability to generate situations of extreme tension that have to be resolved almost instantaneously. Therefore above rules and standards, there is a need for respect to be present in order to provide cordial and proper relations for all matters and persons. Off the pitch, respect is one of the basic requirements of a functioning society. The presence or absence of respect can be very obvious and has a tremendous affect on the outcome of any situation or event.
Integrity – Integrity is a wholeness that is achieved when individuals show a consistent and uncompromising adherence to their chosen values. Integrity stands in opposition to hypocrisy. On the pitch integrity means maintaining honesty and accuracy regardless of the outcome. No one moment is worth the denial of ones own integrity.
Teamwork – The collaborative effort of a group of individuals to achieve a common goal in the most effective and efficient way possible. Teamwork is a skill that requires learning and implementing many other values. It is for this reason that great teamwork can seem to become a phenomena, where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Compete – The ability to show up ready to put forth ones best effort and having a preference for difficult tasks and simply liking to perform well. Competition provides the opportunity or reason for improving performance. Competition motivates one to put forth greater effort that can result in high levels of performance. We don’t compete to win, we compete to get better.
