The FC Frederick Seniors Program is targeted at highly committed high school age players interested in experiencing the game at the highest level available to them. Whether making a High School Varsity team, playing collegiately at the Division 1, 2, or 3 level, or embarking on a professional career, the Seniors Program is designed to help players achieve their goals.
The Senior Boys and Girls Directors oversee all aspects of the boys and girls Senior Programs. The Directors work closely with the Director of Coaching and Staff Coaches to develop and implement program goals. FC Frederick's Senior Boys Director, Colin Viti, and Senior Girls Director, Chuck Hommey, bring a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to the program. Annual Evaluations take place each May for the coming year, but PLAYERS CAN ALSO JOIN THE CLUB AT ANY TIME DURING THE YEAR.
In addition, for players looking for a seasonal commitment, tryouts are held in December/January for High School Spring (HSS) teams playing in the National Capital Soccer League (NCSL). Players are placed on teams based on the year they were born. For labeling purposes, U16 (for example) means that players in that age group are 16 years old and younger at the beginning of the calendar year/season.
The 2026-27 age groups are:
U16 = 8/1/10 - 7/31/11
U17 = 8/1/09 - 7/31/10
U18 = 8/1/08 - 7/31/09
U19 = 8/1/08 - 7/31/09
