NCFC Youth Players and Families in Australia!


With the help from WorldStrides, NCFC Youth organized a trip for 70+ players and families to Australia to have the ultimate fan and player experience. Four groups from different NCFC Youth teams went on this incredible journey: Recreation, Challenge, ECNL/ECNL RL U13/U14, and ECNL/ECNL RL U15+. These groups spent two weeks in the outback where they saw amazing sights like the Sydney Opera House, attended FIFA Women's World Cup matches, caught some waves at Bondi Beach, played matches against local Australian youth clubs, met Paddington the Koala, and had the ultimate Aussie experience.



Our players had a great time and made extraordinary memories and friends while they were down under. Click here to hear what our players favorite moments in Australia.
