Founded as Belleair Youth Soccer, Inc. in 1979, Florida Celtic Soccer Club has been providing soccer programs to youth in the local community and serving residents of Largo, Belleair, and Pinellas County for over four decades. The club states that its purpose is to organize, maintain, and operate recreational, competitive, and educational youth soccer programs for individuals 18 years of age and under, and that it strives to provide a safe and healthy soccer environment for players to learn and develop skills for reaching their full potential as players and young adolescents. Florida Celtic Soccer Club identifies its core values as C.E.L.T.I.C: Commitment, Environment, Learning, Teamwork, Integrity, and Creativity, and describes itself as a development club in which the holistic development of its players is of the utmost importance, with a training environment created through positive coaching and a focus on technical, tactical, physical, and psychological aspects of the game.
The club notes that it has four campuses throughout Pinellas County and that, with four campus locations within reasonable distance, travel is minimized and the focus is on the kids having fun. It also states that it provides a family environment for kids to learn the game of soccer and play with friends. Florida Celtic Soccer Club reports that players are accepted without prejudice to race, religion, nationality, or financial status, as part of its goal to be “Rooted in the Community.” The club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in the State of Florida.
Florida Celtic Soccer Club lists a licensed coaching staff and a Board of Directors that includes Sarah Filipek (Board President), Christine Gomes (Treasurer), Martin Wilde (Vice President), Sara McCullough (Secretary), and Keith Barbaccia (Palm Harbor Liaison). The Board of Directors is scheduled to meet monthly, with terms generally for a one-year commitment of service, and most Board positions requiring approximately 3–5 hours of volunteer work per week, while some positions require substantially more time. The club also notes that a Palm Florida Celtic Visitor’s Guide includes contact numbers of directors and staff, as well as field maps with local hotel and food options.
