“The club would just like to say a huge thank you for those that continued to support us during times of hardship, as well as everyone else that is a current or a new member, for being a part of the club.”

AM Soccer Club runs tots sessions for kids age 3-4, SoccerOne for primary 1s, Soccer Schools for kids age 5-7, and teams from under 8s all the way up to under 19’s. It also offers walking football classes for over 50s.
