The volunteers and coaches behind this organization are wonderful people who give generously of their time. The club administration is challenged. Games are often rescheduled last minute or have no referee. This organization does not support families beyond the standard nuclear family construct. My children have missed multiple events because Pride only communicates with the “account owner” and refuses to support co-parenting families.

Pride Soccer Club is a staple in the Colorado Springs community! They provide amazing opportunities to compete throughout the entire year, which set's our city's youth soccer experience up for success. They are always friendly and willing to be flexible too. I love working with this top notch organization.

Some coaches are good but most are awful. I had two kids in the program over 6 years. Our over all experience was a disappointment. Kids get moved around constantly and teams are broken up through out each season. Not a good place for building confidence in kiddos.

Terrible administration! trying to run a business out of volunteers for the most part. They see players as dollars.There are other options, look around!

Pride Soccer Club is amazing, especially their chance at goal program that helped us play because we otherwise could not have. Pride did a complete 360 on my child would had played for others previously. He learned so much through his coaches who I'm sure had to endure some teachable moments themselves. It shows with this club, the time and effort they take into making their coaches helpful and knowledgeable for the younger generation. Thank you Pride Soccer Club

Had two kids in various levels with Pride, and the memories will always be special.Girls JA is a mess. This past end-of-season tournament clearly showed our segment of Pride as outclassed. For the six 2014G teams, there were 19 total games. Excluding the two Pride vs. Pride games, the cumulative record was 1 tie and 16 losses, with our average of goals-scored less than 0.9. Other clubs seem to be developing a greater depth of technical ability and team play. Some of the teams handily beating our squads are even entirely made up of girls a year younger. Player placements are a mess. i.e For both of the past two seasons, Team 3 consistently comfortably beating Team 2 in games/scrimmages. With so much turnover within the coaches, sometimes even mid-season, a lot of related headwinds arise. There’s been a lot of girls switching to other clubs or exiting Competitive altogether.Rec is okay, although not sure why they consistently formed teams with kids so greatly dispersed geographically. We either typically needed to drive far for practices, or when my wife volunteered to coach she had to field a bunch of complaints from families driving all the way across town.

Very non-inclusive environment, especially for POC. My 7-year-old son has ADHD and has never played soccer; this was our worst experience. Every practice he felt like an outcast because it was so competitive. The coach acted like it was college-level soccer instead of a learning experience for the kids and certain kids got more play time than others. I ended up pulling my son out prematurely because it felt so non-inclusive and I cried because he loves soccer, he just didn't know how to play yet.

The goalkeeper program is great! Coach Dave plans trainings & camps to work hard while having some fun. He takes the time to work with players individually to help them improve.

I have 3 kids who participate in soccer through Pride! We have had nothing but positive experiences with the coaches and the staff. Pride has not only prepared my kids well to play soccer, but they have taught them some valuable life lessons! We love Pride Soccer!

My son plays for the Junior Academy and has always been on the fence about if he enjoyed soccer or not. Since joining the Academy and playing for Coach Kreg, he’s now excited for every practice and can’t wait for game day. He watches soccer now and is always asking to go play outside with his ball. It’s been a lot of fun watching him develop a love for the game because of his time with Pride.

Every experience I've had with Pride Soccer has been first class. Their coaches and staff are top notch and care deeply for the holistic development of the kids. If you're in Colorado Springs, the decision of where to send your kids to play soccer is easy. Pride Soccer is THE place to go!

My son enjoys it but communication is not great. Takes a while to get a response via phone or email.

My two children have played both recreational and competitive soccer through Pride SC since 2016. Recreational experience will vary because coaches are volunteers; however, Pride gives instruction and guidance to help with coaching plans. Competitive is a very different world, but the office has been thorough and responsive while navigating new waters. It's a good experience for children with a real passion for soccer.Disappointing to see so many negative reviews about referees. Pride is not directly responsible for the shortage, and it is impacting the entire nation because of the poor treatment refs have received from spectators. These are paid positions for anyone over 13 years old, and Pride will help train if you're interested in resolving rather than admiring the problem.

Someone should solely oversee Recreational Soccer. Not gone coaching competitive teams. Then maybe there would be time to address things like Marshall’s and Referee shortages. There should be a presence at the parksThe thing that needs the most work is scheduling it is horrendous at best (if there are 20 boys team of same age why are we playing a team 2 and 3 times).

Please bring Patti Wasson back!! she was always on top of everything! always available, she replied to emails and voice messages on a timely manner. She was quick, smart, accurate and precise when creating rosters and schedules. Rec league was 100% better when Patti was in charge!New rec director needs A LOT of training, maybe Patti can be her mentor!
