Walter Barbero the President of Lenape Valley Soccer Club said “On behalf of the Club and The Board of Directors, it is my honor and privilege to announce our partnership with the New York Red Bulls and joining their soccer family. We look forward to the continued future growth of our club and soccer family with the Red Bulls”.
As a result of the partnership, Lenape Valley will become part of the Red Bulls Youth Programs family, the nation’s leading player development pathway. A complete club-development program will be implemented providing technical services throughout all age groups, daily program oversight and long-term strategic leadership. Benefits will include onsite Red Bulls coaching staff that will be dedicated full time to Lenape Valley, access to the Red Bulls curriculum and RED Print, player clinics, team training, parent education workshops, and seasonal training camps.
Lenape Valley Soccer Club currently manages soccer programs designed to introduce a child to soccer, develop skills, and allow them to compete in a team environment. The program is designed so those children who just want to have fun can do just that. At the same time, for those who are more serious, there is opportunity to enter into competitive play via the travel program. LVSC is also a feeder program for the Lenape Valley Regional High School and interacts with a number of coaches in developing the overall club program.
We are truly excited about welcoming the players, families and teams from Lenape Valley Soccer Club to the Red Bulls family” said Patrick McCarron, Regional Manager. “The club’s leadership team is fully dedicated to creating fun and memorable playing experiences for all of its players. The vision, mission and objectives of Lenape Soccer Club are closely aligned to the core values of The Red Print and our approach to development. Having alignment on these core values provides us with what is already a strong foundation for a very successful long-lasting partnership that connects the entire youth soccer community in Lenape Valley to the professional game for many years to come.”
