 About Scorpions Soccer Club Minimize

Scorpions Soccer Club (formerly South Coast Scorpion Soccer Club) was the result of a year 2000 merge between fledgling Scorpions soccer Club and the South Coast Girls Soccer Club. The 'South Coast' regional description was abandoned at the end of the 2006 Spring season.

Scorpions Soccer has grown rapidly.  Currently Scorpions Soccer has 22 girls teams and 6 boys teams.  Our current U12, U15 and U17 teams are defending State Champions.  Our current U15 team won the Region 1 championship in July, 2009, traveling to Lancaster, MA for the National Championship Series Cup.

Scorpions Soccer is investing in the U10 and younger developmental pool with staff coaches Fred Marks, Katie Dempsey, and Don Whitaker.  Fred is the director of the Scorpions Junior Academy.  Don is our Junior Boys coordinator. 

Scorpions Soccer is the highest rated girls soccer club in Massachusetts, #14th in the US by Soccer America, and #15th by Top Drawer Soccer.

Scorpions Soccer typically has multiple teams in age groups younger than 16. The 'top' team in each age group is referred to as the 'Elite' team, while the second and third teams in each age group are referred to as the 'Premier' and 'Club' teams, respectively.  Our Elite teams strive to be among the top in the region (and nation).  Several have gained that status.  In the last 24 months, Scorpions teams have won state and regional championships, league championships and tournaments such as Jefferson Cup (VA), FC Delco (PA), PDA (NJ), Score at the Shore (NY), and WAGS (VA/MD).   Scorpions Soccer also strives to make the best players and teams possible in our second and third teams.  We give all players and teams, at all levels, the same service.

Scorpions Soccer plays on fields available from local communities, and has a strong relationship with Thayer Academy.  The club trains through much of the fall and spring seasons at the Thayer Academy turf field complex, a four-field synthetic grass facility.  In the winter, Scorpions Soccer moves indoors, practicing at Thayer Academy and South Shore Fieldhouse.

Scorpions Soccer is based in Braintree, Massachusetts.  Most Scorpions players live in areas just south of Boston but many players from all over Eastern Massachusetts and RI play with Scorpions Soccer.  Scorpions Soccer teams play in the Massachusetts Premier League (MAPLE), Massachusetts Area Soccer Clubs (MASC), Region 1 Premier League, and the National League.  Open tryouts for U16s and younger are held in June.  Older teams should contact the team coaches directly.

Scorpions Soccer has become a leader in the Massachusetts youth soccer community.  We attempt to act ethically and honorably at all times.  We treat players, coaches, referees, other clubs, administrators with respect.  We like to think that we honor and embrace the game.  We have a lot of fun at Scorpions Soccer and we hope all other youth soccer organizations do as well.

Scorpions Soccer has an equipment and uniform agreement with Nike and Blue Sombrero.  Scorpions Soccer club colors are black and white, with Carolina blue.
