ABOUT PASC

Looking for the best youth soccer in the Lehigh Valley?  Look no further.

The Parkland Area Soccer Club (PASC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit soccer organization
offering great programs which include:  Micro/Kinder, Select (Recreation), Premier (Travel), & TOPSoccer

Mission Statement

The mission of the Parkland Area Soccer Club (PASC) is to improve ALL soccer players by providing a positive learning environment, including an age and skill appropriate training curriculum administered by highly trained coaches who develop players in the technical, tactical, physical, and psychological aspects of the game.

Club Philosophy

PASC recognizes that not all players have the same goals and aspirations related to the sport of soccer.  PASC will provide opportunity for ALL players, from recreational/intramural to premier travel, to receive the appropriate level of training to help them to achieve their personal goals in a fun environment that promotes teamwork, sportsmanship and mutual respect.

Success is defined by continued player interest in the sport of soccer; as well as the improvement of our players, coaches, and teams.

Players will be accepted into the PASC program without regard to race, religion, nationality, or financial status.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there boundaries we must live in to play with your club?
No, though most participants live within the Parkland School District and surrounding areas; we also have members from Northwestern, Bethlehem, Catasaqua, Lower Macungie and Salisbury areas.

What equipment does my child need?
All participants MUST have shin guards.  Shin guards MUST be worn underneath their soccer socks.  Soccer cleats should be worn for the older age groups U7 and above.  A properly sized ball for their age group and a water bottle should be brought to practices and games.  No jewelry is permitted to be worn during practices or games.  In-House and Recreational jersey’s are provided; while travel teams purchase their uniforms.

What size soccer ball is needed?
A properly sized ball is based on age group.

MicroSoccer - U8  Size #3 Ball
U9 - U12              Size #4 Ball
U13 or older        Size #5 Ball

What determines the age group a player is placed in?
The age group is determined by the player’s birth date.   The birth date ranges for each age group are defined by the Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer Association (EPYSA), and are also followed by the different leagues in which PASC teams play.

Where are the practice/game fields?
We have practice/game fields from the northern part of the Parkland Area to the southern part.  For specific field locations, feel free to contact us.When do the teams practice?
Coaches schedule the practices, so they can take place any night of the week. Usually on a consistent schedule (every Thursday, for example.)  There is typically one team practice and an "Academy Night" with a professional trainer.

Do you offer financial support?Some of our registration fees do offer a payment plan. We also are proud to offer our Nace Scholarship to PASC High School Seniors going off to college. If you have financial concerns, please contact us.
