Toca started as a group of coaches collaborating together about the state of youth soccer.  What are the problems? What can we do about it? We reevaluated the motivation for why coaches coach and what is their role. We reevaluated what the purpose of a soccer club should be and why they should exist. We reached a point where we had to take action and become the change we wanted to see in youth soccer!  We have no desire to become just another youth soccer club. We are in a continuous process of reevaluating and redefining the meaning of what a soccer club is to a community!…more

 Vision. Mission. Values.  Two ways we are seeking to change youth soccer:

1. Revolutionizing youth soccer by using a coaching philosophy based on the balance between individual creativity and the total team concept, as well as the idea of music, beauty and motion.

We ask that parents give coaches grace and time to develop into better coaches through the mentoring they receive from our staff. We believe that it is our mission as a club to participate in transformation rather than demand a surface image of “perfection” that we ourselves cannot follow.  Transformation is about being changed from the inside out.  This is our hope for our player, parents and coaches, to be genuine and honest in everything we do from the inside out.
