Looking for a Soccer Club

Albuquerque United Football Club began operations in the fall of 1988 with 8 teams, 7 boys and 1 girls. Today the Club consists of 32 teams age 9 - 19, along with our developmental program for 6-8 year olds.  AUFC is recognized as one of the top Clubs in the western United States, and one whose teams are typically competitive with Clubs from across the country. How does the Club achieve such broad-based success? Great commitment from players, parents, coaches and a consistent, sound approach to player development. 

Developing the Elite Player

We are told that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to become expert in any field.  Soccer should not be different.  Does this mean we can never produce world-class players in North America?

At AUFC, we are committed to developing elite players and doing so requires a dedicated, qualified staff and commitment from the player and parents.  Having competitive aspirations with recreational commitment will not develop an elite player.  So, what does having competitive commitment mean?

Training sessions that are engaging, fun and focused from our coaching staff, players taking the ball to school to practice and show-off their new skills, and parents playing with and encouraging their sons and daughters in the evening, all demonstrate that competitive commitment.  And best of all, its fun.

U5-U8 Young Dragons Academy

To support the goal of developing Elite players, the players must first have a love of the game.  Time spent training and playing must be enjoyable and challenging.  The Young Dragons program is designed for the players to have this experience.  We like to call it, 'Fun with a purpose.'

U9-U18 Metro Soccer

Excellence in any sport is acquired through competition.  Competition challenges athletes because of our inherent desire to win.  In soccer, there are skills and tactics to be learned, and overcoming each opponent requires a skills or tactic in order to defeat them.  So, developing a strong player that can adapt quickly to the situations which arise on the game field requires that the player be introduced to many different opponents.

This philosophy has lead United to develop an age group and cross group training program.  This provides the variety of challenges needed, in a confidence building atmosphere consisting of your soccer friends.  Because, lets face it, beating your friend is just more fun.

Looking to Bring Your Recreational Team to United

Albuquerque United is actively developing its coach training program.  If you are interesting in advancing your coaching avocation, please contact us.  You can watch our skills training and coach interactions at our club skills sessions.  We think you'll like what the young athletes are learning and how the coaches train.
