McGuire Cup National Soccer Championship
While our Annandale soccer program has won 7 national championships and numerous regional, state and local championships . . . our primary focus has always been to provide children ages 4 to 19 with the opportunity to have fun playing soccer at the highest level they can learn to play at. We take great pride in all of our players including those who started as recreational soccer players and went on to play high level travel soccer, for their high school, in college, for domestic and professional soccer teams as well as for the U.S. National Team. Our ABGC coaches and staff have repeatedly been recognized and honored at the local, state, and national levels for their contributions to the game.
 
 
As a coach your primary contribution to each child is teaching life's lessons like respect for others, fair play, working as a member of a team, what you can accomplish by making an effort to learn to be better and how doing something you enjoy can be fun! If you can do these things then ABGC has a coaching soccer education program to help you learn to teach our children basic soccer skills, game understanding and a love of the game.
 
 
Our Visiting Teams Information Guide provides visiting teams a local area map and guide complete with information on local area restaurants, stores and medical care facilities. Each year, during the spring and fall, our Annandale Soccer Program hosts 635 to 665 soccer games on our fields in Annandale, Alexandria, Falls Church, Merrifield and Springfield for approximately 20,000 visiting players, parents and siblings who live outside our area. When you add our 2,300 Annandale soccer players and their parents and siblings, our Visiting Teams Information Guide promotes local businesses to 27,000 prospective customers
 
Our goal is that every club member learn to give back to our community now and throughout their lives. We believe that our most important mission is to teach life's lessons to our many youth members. In addition to learning to give back to our community through volunteer community service hours, our programs teach teamwork, the rewards of working hard to learn to play well, taking pride in accomplishments, to be gracious in victory and to always respect coaches, spectators, teammates, opponents and one's own parents.
