Official Philadelphia Union Youth Affiliate
Roxborough United Soccer Club is proud to be the very first youth soccer club in the city of Philadelphia to join the Philadelphia Union Youth Affiliate Program. In February 2019, the Philadelphia Union officially selected RUSC for this honor, recognizing our commitment to developing local, community-based soccer opportunities at an affordable cost.
What Our Union Affiliation Means
- Access to youth training sessions and program evaluations led by Philadelphia Union youth coaches
- Coach and parent education opportunities through Union-led development clinics
- Direct connection to select-player pathways, including Union youth select teams and elite training camps
- Community-centered programming that aligns with Union standards—recreational and travel programs both benefit
Since 2019, Roxborough United has extended this strong partnership—including becoming a full Union Club Affiliate in 2020—and continues to deliver top-quality youth soccer experiences while staying true to our community roots.
Why It Matters to You
Families who choose Roxborough United benefit from the same training philosophies and technical resources that the Union brings to its Academy system—right here in Northwest Philly.
