Who We Are: An Introduction to Our Community
By: Eric Ridgeway Fulton
We have our successes; qualifying for the highest competitions in the sport for a club of our level.
We have our history; being one of the longest operated adult soccer clubs in the clubs in the state.
We have our size; being the largest adult soccer organizer in the state, providing an unparalleled system of teams and competition who form a true club culture.
But all of that, is just a portion of who we are. We are sons and daughters. We are fathers and mothers. We are friends, neighbors, and volunteers. We are firefighters, graphic designers, nurses, and car salespeople. We have stories to tell about who and what we represent.
In this light, we start a new series of blog posts to introduce you to our colorful community. From lighthearted vignettes of our players background to serious stories of the work and impact our players and coaches are working to make in the community. We hope these stores shed some light into the nature of players and personalities that form our club.
For us, soccer is a passion. And equally, soccer is a vehicle to build community and impact the lives of our players and our broader community. We are competitors, not only to win but to continually strive to be better players and people than we were yesterday.
We hope you enjoy. Forever FC Denver!
