Mission Statement:

Babylon Soccer Club (BSC) is a Non for Profit organization that promotes soccer in our community. We believe that all youth players should be given the opportunity to develop within a soccer environment that is encouraging, safe, affordable and most importantly, fun.

Our goal is to assist all players by helping them reach their full potential regardless of their soccer abilities. Each and every player should receive the best possible training and coaching by skilled and qualified adults. Furthermore, a player should be allowed to play at a level that is most favorable to their individual growth.

We believe players should NOT have to leave the community in order to achieve their goals. BSC will do its utmost to improve the mind, body, self-confidence and the spirit of good sportsmanship in each player, and in turn help them develop a love and understanding of the game that will last a lifetime.

Holistic Approach of Teaching Soccer

Rather than just focusing on just soccer techniques and tactics, the goal of player development is to assist a child in developing their social, psychological and physical skills to succeed on and off the pitch. We want a child to be able to think for themselves, negotiate and resolve conflict and perform at their best in everything that they do in life. Guide the player rather than instruct. Don’t overwhelm the player with instructions; allow the player to make decisions on their own; allow the player to be creative and not over analyze.

Team Building

Soccer has the uncanny dualistic role of building a player’s individuality as well as supporting and sustaining a child’s relationship with other players….by being part of a team. Being part of a team is an important and intangible social relationship that has a positive impacts on a child’s psychological development. You never face anything alone when you are part of a team. The problems that one may face off the pitch are handled together and thus helps them through any difficult situation. The team takes on the intangible roles of nurturing and guiding a child through the psychological burden he or she may endure on the pitch. It is inevitable that this relationship has an indirect, yet positive impact on how a child handles a problem off the pitch. As part of a team, a child realizes that he or she are not alone and there are various ways of dealing with the day to day problems that they may face. When a child feels part of a team, they are motivated to perform at their highest level and build a passion for that particular activity.
