Allstars United SC - Saratoga, California

We're so glad to have joined this club last spring. All the coaches make the effort to know the names of all the kids across the age groups. Our experience has been nothing but amazing with our children's coaches throughout the seasons. The 2012 boys' coach has always been available to work with our son before and after practice sessions. The extra time and direction he's given our son have made a huge difference in his development and we all could not believe the progress he's made.

We have also been very impressed with the girls' program. Our daughter plays for one of the younger teams and they have been highly competitive. Her growth and strength have improved so much this past year. We have also been pleased with the additional training they offer such as finishing sessions, speed agility, and quickness training as well as free scrimmages during the summer. All in all, this has been a wonderful experience for our children and us as parents.

We moved to the Los Gatos area from South Africa 18 months ago and immediately looked for a soccer club for our two boys (2012 and 2014). We evaluated all the local options and chose Allstars United for many reasons but primarily because of how we were welcomed and our boys were made to feel included from day one.

Since joining the club, both my boys have significantly improved their skills, understanding of the game and fitness, which is all down to the quality of coaching they have received. Marcus (2012) and KP (2014) have done an amazing job making sure that the boys feel motivated and excited about their soccer. I’ve particularly appreciated the depth and quality of feedback we’ve received about the areas for development that we need to focus on.

The club prioritizes fun, teamwork, inclusion and wants to develop a competitive spirit. There is a strong emphasis on learning from losses and celebrating winning.

The greatest measure of whether we chose the right club is that we only hear positive feedback from our boys about practice and games. We’re very happy to be members of Allstars United family and can’t recommend the club highly enough.

We have been with Allstars United for two years and it was the best decision we have made. The club has the right balance of fun/competitiveness for the age group. The facilities are excellent, and the coaches and how they deal with the kids is exceptional. Our son has developed his skills, game awareness and more importantly is having a great time.

I highly recommend Saratoga All Stars FC to anyone seeking a positive youth soccer experience. Our journey with the organization began with a phone call to Andrew, the director, who immediately impressed us with his zero-pressure approach and an invitation to come see the program for ourselves.

Saratoga All Stars FC boasts beautiful fields for their players, and notably, they are dedicated to balancing their attention equally between their girls and boys teams. The organization brings in professional coaches who are passionate about soccer and coach the kids with enthusiasm and joy. Regardless of a child's skill level, there is a place for them within the program, as Saratoga All Stars FC offers both grassroots and highly competitive levels of play.

One particular highlight of our experience with Saratoga All Stars FC is the consistency of having a professional coach stay with the team. We are fortunate enough to have coach Ernie! This has been invaluable to our son's development and progression, and we have seen the benefits firsthand. It is a true joy to watch our son grow and develop under the guidance of such a skilled coach.

In addition to the quality of coaching, Saratoga All Stars FC emphasizes the importance of sportsmanship and clean play from the very beginning, instilling these values in their players from day one. This has resulted in a team environment where players come together to support one another on and off the field, creating a positive and inclusive atmosphere for everyone involved.

Overall, we could not recommend Saratoga All Stars FC more highly. The organization's commitment to quality coaching, inclusivity, and sportsmanship have made for a truly outstanding experience for our son and our family.

7 years plus experience with the club. Extremely well organized, extremely player centric, coaches that really care about player development and go way beyond what one would expect. Ability to play on multiple teams (age groups) to get more game exposure. Extremely reasonably priced for what the club provides. Great, encouraging parent community that works closely with coaches. Great group of players, mutually supportive. Access to good training fields include turf floodlit fields on winter evenings. Highly recommend for players looking to play at a higher level.
