It is the mission of Sporting San Diego to foster and develop the physical, mental and emotional growth of San Diego youth through the sport of soccer. Sporting San Diego strives to maintain a safe and creative environment where athletes may express themselves on the field without consequence, while staying true to the core values of integrity, leadership, respect and teamwork. The goal of the Sporting SD staff is to always focus on the “person” as much as the “player.” We are committed to improving the technical and tactical side of the game for each player, but, also teach them “lessons” that will go beyond the soccer field, enhancing self-esteem, promoting self-confidence and cultivating a lifelong passion for the game of soccer.
