About
Clovis Crossfire Soccer is a long-running Central Valley club based in Clovis, California, serving more than 5,000 youth players each year across recreational and competitive tracks. Founded in 1977 and affiliated with U.S. Youth Soccer and US Club Soccer, the organization operates through the Clovis Junior Soccer League umbrella while fielding nationally connected competitive teams for families who want a high-commitment pathway alongside community-based play.
What the club offers
Recreational programming spans young children through teens: youth sessions for roughly Under-6 through Under-12 players at any skill level, plus a teen recreational track for ages 12–19 that emphasizes enjoyment and development without the travel load of elite competition. The competitive program targets Under-8 through Under-18 athletes and places teams in NorCal Premier structures, including Elite Clubs National League Regional League (ECNL RL) boys sides, Girls Academy (GA) and Pre-GA girls pathways, and Pre-ECNL RL rosters where offered. Seasonal Development Center blocks—often eight weeks with professional coaching—give younger players extra touches between league cycles. The club also supports adult participation, so the ladder truly runs from introductory ages through lifelong play.
Development approach
The mission centers on a healthy, positive, and fun competitive environment where Central Valley athletes grow as people, students, and soccer players. Leadership describes the vision as becoming Northern California’s premier youth club through community commitment, excellence, and holistic development—not only skilled competitors but well-rounded individuals prepared for life beyond the field. Day-to-day culture is shaped by six values: humility, dedication, growth mindset, resilience, community and teamwork, and personal excellence in training and matches. Technical Director Shawn Grieco, Girls Coaching Director Hamid Sedehi, and Boys Coaching Director Adam Smith oversee the competitive coaching structure alongside President and Executive Director Robert Stewart and Operations and Finance Director Orlando Ramirez.
Tryouts and placement
Competitive tryouts follow NorCal Premier Soccer guidelines. Open sessions for any athlete—regardless of current club—typically conclude the spring season in early May, with supplemental opportunities for newcomers after that window when roster space allows. Families relocating into the area or arriving outside the formal cycle can reach the technical staff for guidance on late evaluations. Tryout activity commonly uses Granite Sports Park and other Central Valley venues announced each cycle.
