Pomona, California

About

FCGS Force is a community-based competitive youth soccer organization rooted in the eastern Los Angeles metro, with a Pomona business address and tryout activity spread across nearby cities. The club welcomes beginners and experienced players into a structure that pairs local training and match environments with national-level boys platforms and a SoCal-focused girls pathway.

Programs and league pathways

Boys programming connects to MLS NEXT and the Elite Academy League, with named academy and league directors overseeing those tracks. Girls teams aim to compete in the SoCal league during the 2026/27 season, with registration shifting to a school-year age matrix for that cycle. The SoCal platform grew out of the Southern California Developmental Soccer League founded in 2011, rebranded to SoCal in 2021 under US Club Soccer sanctioning, and routes state-cup champions toward a California championship crossover with NorCal Premier.

Tryouts and registration

Families start from the central tryouts hub, then branch to dedicated boys or girls tryout pages. Boys tryouts are organized by birth-year bands, with recurring sessions at Almansor Park in Alhambra and Rio Hondo College in Whittier for younger groups, while older boys cohorts sometimes keep the Whittier college site with times still pending each cycle. Girls tryouts follow SoCal age brackets at McKinley School in Pasadena, using a U6–U19 school-year cutoff table for the 2026/27 registration model. Registration runs through a TeamSnap form linked from those pages; exact dates rotate each season, so families should confirm the current window before traveling.

Coaching philosophy and player development

Training follows a player-centered, holistic model with lots of guided questions, problem solving on the fly, and a play-practice-play rhythm so players improve through repetition. Expectations highlight focus, coachability, clear goals, and self-responsibility on the field and during travel. The long-range aim is adaptable athletes who can succeed under different coaches or systems, plus a Path2Pro transition track for members targeting the professional game.

Office location and how to reach the club

General membership questions can go through the website contact form.
