About Select

Select Soccer is for players in the U13 through U19 age groups

The Philosophy of the Florence Soccer Association Select Program is to develop each player’s technical skills and tactical knowledge of soccer.  FSA's positive training environment is the foundation of our philosophy and winning games is a byproduct of the player’s development.  Each select coach emphasizes each player’s technical and tactical development through the use of competitive small sided games.
