The Clarion River Valley Strikers offer a Developmental Academy for children ages 4-11 for both fall and spring seasons. Our games are played at the Clarion County Park in Shippenville, PA. Children will practice once a week        (the day and time to be determined by the coach). All volunteer coaches will be provided a curriculum with a sample of weekly practice session ideas to use with their team. Experienced Striker coaches will conduct training sessions for our older groups. Optional coaching clinics will be provided as well!

Our league is unique in that we specialize in focusing on the fundamentals to develop our young soccer players! Participants are offered a fun and challenging learning environment that other soccer leagues cannot match! Players who demonstrate a higher skill set may be encouraged to compete on one of our competitive Striker teams. Each season the number of participants will be limited to ensure that each child is offered the best experience possible. One of our goals is not to be the biggest soccer club, but the best.

Our primary mission is simple...to develop soccer skills, teach sportsmanship and to create a passion for the game, all while playing soccer in a learning environment that is competitive and above all...FUN!
