Importance of Development Curriculum

Why a soccer club? Oshkosh United Soccer Club is a select soccer club for boys and girls ages U-11 to U-19. United teams play against other select teams in the East Central Soccer Division of the Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association. Teams also participate in soccer tournaments throughout the state. The ultimate goal of Oshkosh United Soccer Club is to provide each player with an enjoyable, rewarding and challenging soccer experience in a positive, supportive environment. Appropriate soccer skills, tactical training and sportsmanship are top player priorities.


Why volunteer? OUSC was established as a volunteer-run organization for youth in the community to learn to play competitive soccer. Family volunteering was and continues to be the most fundamental need for the club, keeping costs to a minimum, growing financial opportunity for disadvantaged youth to play and supporting all activities of the club. For current volunteer positions open, please click here. [TOP]


What will my child learn from being in a competitive versus recreational club? Through soccer we strive to teach players to be self-sufficient, to be leaders and risk takers within a framework of personal responsibility, self sacrifice and teamwork. Oshkosh United players become individuals, teammates, and leaders both on and off the field.

Oshkosh United is dedicated to developing individuals to their full potential. Training involves a multitude of activities that emphasize individual and team skills. We feel a mastery of the basic skills of dribbling, receiving, passing, shooting and defending are the foundation from which players are able to reach their full potential. We employ small-sided games, such as two against two, to allow players more opportunities to interact with the ball and make decisions that affect the immediate outcome of the game.  Players play in a number of positions over the course of the year to truly develop as well-rounded soccer players. 

At Oshkosh United our soccer players learn to win graciously, lose with dignity, but above all, to relish the challenges and opportunities afforded by competition. [TOP]


How do costs for Oshkosh United compare to other clubs? This has been a hot topic at times as new clubs as well as established clubs charges are made known to other club parents. Our costs are average for teams in the area. Our costs tend to cover more activities and requirements than others. Throughout the state, costs range from $2000 plus parent booster club fees and chareged volunteer time of $30 per hour to less than $200 per player, again, taking into account some of low end fees do not cover the cost of a coach. Some clubs ask parents to find their own coach, providse housing and costs.
