BITTERROOT
TRAVEL TEAMS
We believe in creating mindful and kind young adults with strong core values and we attempt to do this using soccer as our vehicle. If you believe that sports can have a profound impact on shaping your child's character then Bitterroot Strikers is for you. Your child will learn about commitment, adversity, determination, discipline, and respect just to name a few. We develop technically and tactically proficient soccer players all while not neglecting the things that really matter in life. We are confident that you and your child will be well served as a valued member of our community.
PURPOSE AND CORE VALUES
While making team selections, our coaches and evaluators have deliberated with great care. We take much into account when making decisions on placements for each player.
First, we always keep Strikers FCs' Purpose and Core Values at the heart of all decisions. Purpose: To Foster Personal Growth through Soccer.
Our Core values: P.R.I.D.E. | One Club, One Family | (Prioritize the People, Be positively Relentless, Strive for Inclusivity, Prioritize Development, and expect and demand Excellence).
All of these values have to be balanced among all athletes, especially within the context of each age group. We do not take these decisions lightly and understand the impact selections have on players. It is our hope that as parents you can help facilitate productive conversations with your children about their selection as opportunities for personal growth. Our coaches look forward to helping each of our players develop as people and soccer players this season.
