Defensively, our teams are trained to win the ball back as quick as possible using "team defending", while still maintaining organized defensive shape.
The FCE Pathway:
Beginning with the Fall 2022 Season, it is the expectation that all FC Edmonds Teams follow the FCE Pathway to ensure the most successful competitive experience. New teams will always start in the Classic 1 Division unless a given birth year has 2 teams, in which the 2nd team may play Classic 2.

3 Summer Tournaments are required for all teams with 1 tournament being a Club-Wide mandatory tournament
Coaches should encourage their players to try out for the WPL Academy
Coaches will all be licensed with the assistance of the
WPL.
