Copa Chivas Tournament

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:55:53 GMT

Copa Chivas - GUadalajara, Mexico

The FCGS 2015s and 2016s had an unforgettable experience at Copa Chivas in Guadalajara, combining high-level soccer with an incredible cultural adventure. The trip began with the excitement of the tournament opening ceremonies at Akron Stadium, where the players got to experience the energy and tradition of Copa Chivas alongside teams from around the world. One of the biggest challenges was acclimating to Guadalajara’s elevation, but both teams adjusted quickly and competed with tremendous effort. The 2016s finished with a 1-2-0 record, earning one win and two hard-fought ties, while the 2015s battled their way to a 2-1-0 record, with two impressive victories and one loss against one of Mexico's top academy teams.

Away from the field, the team experienced the best of Guadalajara. The players and families attended an exciting Lucha Libre match, took a side trip to the colorful and historic town of Tlaquepaque, and explored downtown Guadalajara. Along the way, everyone had the opportunity to try authentic Mexican cuisine—from tacos and tortas to birria and other local favorites—which became an important part of the adventure. These experiences gave the players a chance to see and appreciate a different culture while creating memories that went far beyond the soccer field.

Most importantly, the trip brought the FCGS families closer together. Between practices, games, sightseeing, meals, bus rides, and cheering each other on from the sidelines, the players developed stronger friendships, and the parents built their own bonds and friendships. The combination of competition, travel, culture, and team camaraderie made Copa Chivas much more than a soccer tournament—it was a true team experience. The 2015s and 2016s came home with wins and lessons from the field, but more importantly, they returned with great memories, stronger connections, and an experience they will talk about for years to come.

Sophie hopkins steps onto the world stage!

Talk about a soccer memory of a lifetime!

FCGS player Sophie Hopkins had the incredible opportunity to serve as an official Player Escort at the FIFA World Cup 26™ , walking onto the field for the Switzerland vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina match on June 18 at SoFi Stadium.

The opportunity started right here at FC Golden State , when Sophie’s coaches learned about the Player Escort opportunity and connected her with Football For Her , encouraging her to get involved and take advantage of an experience beyond the club. Through Football For Her, Sophie was selected to participate in the Quaker and Common Goal Player Escort initiative , which created opportunities for more than 1,400 young people from community soccer organizations across the United States to walk onto the pitch alongside World Cup players.

For Sophie, that connection led all the way from the FCGS fields to a World Cup field—an unforgettable opportunity to experience the game she loves on its biggest stage.

At FCGS, player development goes beyond training and games. We want our coaches to help players discover opportunities, build connections, and experience where the game can take them.

Coach Rebekah Takes on New York!

We love seeing FCGS coaches continue to grow, learn, and make an impact beyond our fields! Coach Rebekah recently had the incredible opportunity to travel to New York City and participate in Manchester City’s Young Leaders Summit through Football For Her .

The Young Leaders Summit brought together emerging coaches and leaders from across the United States for a week of leadership development, hands-on coaching, collaboration, and community impact. Led by Manchester City and City in the Community coaches, participants explored how the game can be used for more than developing players—using football to build confidence, create inclusive environments, and positively impact young people and their communities.

Rebekah was able to take part in this experience through Football For Her , a Los Angeles-based nonprofit that creates safe and inclusive opportunities for girls and non-binary youth to play, while providing mentorship and access to resources and experiences within the game.

We’re proud to have coaches like Rebekah representing FCGS, investing in their own development, and bringing new ideas and experiences back to our players and coaching community.

Way to represent, Coach Rebekah!

FCGS Force Academy Division MLS Next Cup Qualifier

Thu, 06 Nov 2025 17:36:43 GMT

MLS Next Cup Qualifier

The FCGS MLS Next U15 squad, led by coach Edson, delivered a remarkable display of determination at the MLS Next Cup Qualifier. Finishing 5" place, winning 4 games out of 5 with three thrilling victories decided by tie breaker penalty kicks. Every match was a test of heart and resilence as the boys fought for every 50/50 ball, lifted each other through every challenge, and played unselfishly for the crest on their chest, FCGS Force. Win or lose, they stood as one team, relentless, fearless, and driven to compete with the very best. The expectation is clear; fight for every moment, grow together, and win every game as a team.

Coach Chava's U17 and U19 AD teams had a amazing experience at the MLS Next Cup

Qualifiers. The event was well organized, and the game schedules ran smoothly, making it easy for our players and parents to follow and enjoy the matches. Both teams played very well and showed great team work and effort throughout the tournament. Our U17 team won all their matches with a 4-0 record, and our U19 team finished with a strong 3-1 record. Both teams performed at a top level over the weekend. We also want to give a shoutout to Halpern Travel for helping with our hotel bookings and accommodating our group.

FCGS Force Media Day

Tue, 14 Oct 2025 17:37:03 GMT

Creativity, Connection, & Empowering Her

The FCGS Force Girls Soccer Program once again proved that it's about more than just soccer! This year's Media Day was a perfect mix of fun, friendship, and fierce confidence.

From our youngest team, G2017, to our oldest, G2008, players swapped cleats for cameras as whats's normally a simple photo day turned into an all-out celebration of creativity and team spirit.

Teammates laughed, struck poses, and got a little silly between shots - with plenty of buddy photos, hair and make up inspo, and behind-the-scene giggles!

Collaborations

Adding to the excitment, we collaborated with Sports Meets Beauty founder Stefanie Guerra, and her team, who gave the girls a full hairstyling and makeup prep experience before photos. The event took place at Best Never Rest indoor soccer facility in Temple City, providing the perfect setting for creativity and connection!

KRTVA Co. founder Estafany Ruiz brought an insider's touch, showing the girls what it's like to go through a professional athlete's media day. They even teamed up with Adidas for activation stations, where players got to explore the brand's latest F50 Sparks Fusion and F50 Fusions cleat lines - and rock them in their photos!

At its heart, Media Day was more than photos - it reflected FCGS's commitment to building strong. confident, and connected young women. Through teamwork, self expression, and joy. they continue to bring their shine both on and off the field.

Fall Event 25 U13-U14 Provo, Utah

Fri, 26 Sep 2025 17:35:14 GMT

Provo, Utah Fall Event 2025

The FC Golden State B2013 Elite Academy team delivered an outstanding performance at the recent Provo, Utah Showcase, earning two wins out of three matches and demonstrating the skill, discipline, and teamwork that define the FC Golden State program.

In the opening match, FCGS set the tone with a dominant 14-0 victory over Mt. Rainier FC. The team showcased a balanced attack with goals from more than seven different players, and one of the most memorable moments came when goalkeeper David scored, earning enthusiastic applause from both teammates and parents.

Following the impressive start, the team's second match was rescheduled to face a highly competitive opponent, Villarreal Las Vegas, who had previously defeated a team from Southern California 9-1. FCGS led 2-1 at halftime after a strong first-half performance but ultimately fell 2-4 in a hard-fought battle that highlighted the team's resilience and spirit.

In the final game, the boys responded with determination and focus, securing a 3-1 victory over Albion FC Las Vegas to close out the showcase on a high note.

We are extremely proud of the players for their effort, sportsmanship, and growth throughout the event. Special recognition goes to Coach Jairo for recruiting a full roster and preparing the boys to perform at a high level in such a short time. The team represented FC Golden State with pride, unity, and competitive excellence in every match!

The families hiked volcano trails, relaxed in natural hot springs, and visited artisian towns where they learned more about Costa Rica's traditions. The beaches of Jaco and Manuel Antonio gave them time to recharge and enjoy the pura vida lifstyle. Beyond the sights and games, what made this trip truly special was the bond created between teammates, families, and coaches - memories that will last a lifetime!
