FC Milwaukee Soccer Sign up for U10 and under has begun

FC Milwaukee Juniors Soccer Located in Menomonee Falls / Germantown Sign up for FC Milwaukee U10 and under has begun.

For the first time in our history FC Milwaukee has a fully operational all-inclusive U10 and under soccer program. Directed by veteran coach Tommy Alioto and assisted by Pat White this program began in the 2010-2011 season.

“Our inaugural year went even better than we expected”, stated Tommy, “We have 18 recreational teams and 4 developmental teams. We expect this number to grow exponentially this year and going forward.”

Coach Alioto is not new to the youth soccer scene. A Wisconsin soccer pioneer with over 25 years of coaching experience, 14 years of professional playing experience and expertise at all levels of coaching; Tommy decided to invest his energies in our youngest soccer players. He developed successful U10 and under programs with the Milwaukee Kickers, Milwaukee Rampage, Mequon United and now, he has brought his experience and wares to FC Milwaukee. By providing consistent curriculum, coaching support, clinics and constant presence with all U10 and under teams, Tommy has provided a stability and vision to the ages most often ignored.

“Soccer begins with the little kids. I love working with the kids and it was an easy choice to join FC Milwaukee. I have been around soccer my whole life, including professional outfits, FC Milwaukee is the most well run soccer club I have experienced. I am excited to grow this program and provide my experience to the club's younger players.”

Three Different Soccer Programs

At FC Milwaukee, we offer 3 different programs for our U10 and under players. Developmental Program The Developmental program is designed for U7-U10 recreational age level teams (U11 soccer is when select soccer and tryouts are allowed by the state’s governing body the WYSA) who want paid, professional coaches, more training and more games.

Coach Pat White, “Quite frankly if your 7 to 10 year old enjoys the game, this is where they should be playing. These are important ages for kids to develop the technical aptitude to play.”

*U10 Players can also tryout for FC Milwaukee U11 Select teams. Select tryouts begin in early June. Check our Web site for more information.

Recreational Program

Our recreational program is for kids U7-U10 who want less commitment, but the structure of a professional organization. You may be testing the soccer waters and/or seeing if your child will enjoy the game. Our recreational program has the advantage of a professional structure and curriculum.

Coach Tom Alioto, “Our recreational program is now the foundation of the club. We are excited to put FC Milwaukee uniforms on these kids and help them get better and enjoy the game.”

Micro Soccer

For the 3-6 year old, we now have Micro-Soccer. This is a basic introduction to the game. Coach Alioto will provide a fun learning environment to get kids acquainted with the game.

Coach Tommy Alioto, “This program is great. I started this program in various locales and there is nothing like watching the 3, 4 and 5 year olds dribble a ball for the first time.”
