Roswell Soccer Club

About the Club

Roswell Soccer Club (RSC) is a youth soccer organization operating in Roswell, Georgia, with competitive teams playing in the broader Metro Atlanta area. The club evolved from a youth recreational soccer program initiated by the Roswell Recreation and Parks Department in 1976, with the Roswell Soccer Club formally established in the late 1980s to support these programs and fundraising efforts. RSC offers a comprehensive range of programs for youth participants aged 2-18, including Kiddie Kickers, World Cup, Recreational, Academy, and Select levels. The competitive "Santos" program, named in honor of Pelé's former team, emphasizes core values of Respect & Responsibility, Sacrifice & Service, and Commitment & Cooperation. Kevin Kratz, a former Atlanta United player, serves as the Director of Coaching, bringing professional experience to the club. For boys, RSC's First Teams compete in the MLS NEXT New Tier, a significant pathway for elite youth development. Boys' Second Teams participate in the National Academy League (NAL), while other boys' teams compete in the Southeastern Club Champions League (SCCL) Premier divisions. Girls' First Teams play in the highly competitive Developmental Players League (DPL), with other girls' teams also competing in SCCL Premier divisions. The club has a history of developing successful teams, exemplified by its U19 Girls team, which achieved multiple league championships, regional championships, and state cup wins, with players advancing to collegiate soccer.
