FLSC strives to maintain an environment that embodies our core values while enhancing self- esteem, promoting self-confidence and cultivating a lifelong passion for the game of soccer. We are a community-based club that aims to provide an outstanding football experience for any person regardless of their, age, ability, race, religion and gender. We offer a safe, quality and supported environment at all levels from ages 5 to 25, both male and female. The club is run by a lovely group of dedicated volunteers whose mission is to provide the best possible football experience to our young people. We aspire to give all our players access to the best possible coaching and maximise their chances to achieve their full football potential. We aim to be a free soccer club in Victoria with the right balance between coaching costs and federation fees. We know club level soccer has a reputation of being a very expensive sport, however we are committed to keeping it free and available to the numerous youths living in the Yarra city and surrounding areas. The support of the council and local businesses is an instrument in keeping these costs down for the hundreds of boys and girls participating. Our players have talent that is under developed and we support them to experiment and develop their skills.These kids are being raised by parents unfamiliar with the community and this club brings the youth and the older generation together in a common bond. Developing pride, growth and understanding in the community. The biggest problem people have adjusting to life in Australia when they arrive as refugees or migrants is finding connection and relating to other CALD groups, Our club provides the bridge into the community. There are many diverse communities in the city of Yarra they all come together as club members separate to their ethnic cultural or religious identities and the club forges a community that would otherwise not naturally occur
