This designation places FCSC among a select group of organizations nationwide trusted to deliver Major League Soccer’s official youth recreational soccer experience, designed to provide a fun, accessible, and developmentally appropriate entry point into the sport.


What Is MLS GO?


MLS GO is Major League Soccer’s national youth soccer initiative, created to grow the game by offering a high-quality, community-based recreational program for boys and girls.

As a locally rooted organization, FCSC was founded to raise the standard of youth soccer while maintaining a strong focus on community, respect, and access for all players.
“Becoming an official MLS GO League Operator is an important milestone for our club and our community,” said Alex J. Moraes , President and Executive Director of Franklin County Sports Club . “This partnership validates the work we’ve done to build quality programs and gives local families access to a nationally recognized soccer experience—right here in Franklin County.”


What This Means for Local Families


With FCSC operating MLS GO locally, families can expect:
  • A professionally supported recreational soccer option
  • A clear, trusted entry point into the sport
