Youth of The WestBank

 
 

Where do we come from?

A group of young players looked for opportunities to play the game of soccer in their community. Unfortunately, every park they came across, every field they saw where the possibility of kicking the ball could be at, was shut down to them. They looked for more assistance. More guidance on how to play, where to play, how to play more competitively. So when they finally found the chance of calling upon their friends in the community to form a competitive team, a team that would take them all across the state of Louisiana and the Gulf Coast, they jumped on the opportunity fast and with desire. The same way they took that opportunity, was the same way they played on the field, fast and full of heart. It is because of the youth of the area of Jefferson Parish, LA we call the “WestBank” that WestBank Futbol Club was formed.

WestBank Futbol Club was formed to provide a base/home for the development of youth soccer on the WestBank. To provide a continuous stream of soccer talent for years to come in an area that has been dubbed for the longest the “dead zone of soccer” in Louisiana. We take on this challenge to eliminate this the vast shadow that has deprived soccer on the WestBank. Within the city’s of the WestBank lies a giant soccer community that has waited years to be awaken. That time has come, and that time is now! Let’s prepare ourselves for a fun ride. Go WestBank FC!
