Hey there. My name is Bryan Coe and I’ve been playing soccer since I was 8 years old.
My first experience was with a team in Ephrata, PA. Back then there weren’t many teams in the area so I was playing with kids much older than me.
Throughout my soccer career, I played with club teams, select teams (there was no PA Classics back then), as well as through high school. I didn’t play on a college team, mostly because the college I graduated from didn’t have a collegiate team at the time. I ended up playing with a group of internationals. This taught me a lot about the different styles of soccer around the world. There were some excellent players on the team.
Sometimes I think I wouldn’t still be playing if I had played competitively in college. I might have burned out or suffered injuries.
As it is now, I don’t know how I would live without soccer. I’m still very active in the soccer community and play year-round. My company I also sponsor a team FC Blackbird that plays indoors.
Our mission with this site is to help adults keep playing and enjoying soccer in the Central PA region. the beautiful game, throughout their lives.
How We Create Content
All the content you will find on this site has been planned and edited by me to ensure we meet the highest quality standards. I sometimes use freelance writers to help with articles but nothing is put online without approval from me, the chief editor. This is to ensure all information we publish is accurate and you can trust it.
I personally play in many of the leagues in the area so, I have first-hand experience and often attend pickup sessions to see what they are like as well. We also, post information for pickup across Central PA as we learn about them. If you have something you’d like to add please let us know.
The goal is to be a place you can trust to help adults find where to play soccer in Central PA and to learn about soccer. So they can keep enjoying the beautiful game.
