American River FC has become our second family. We love all of the tournaments, games, training, practices and facilities. The club offers so much for kids of all ages. There is a true sense of community and involvement. The coaching is elite and experienced. The coach our son has, Mike Canty, delivers on so many levels. If you are interested or looking to move to the next level for your son our daughter in club level soccer, this should be your first and only choice to try out and see where your child can go. Go Team ARFC!

Great community club concept but badly executed. I would steer away from this club. We had two kids that played with this club and we pulled them both out after a couple of years (we should have done it earlier but friends...). We have been with this club for a few years and we liked the affordability and parent coaches (even though most are not highly qualified/certified). However, the club is ran by what many have come to call "The Three Musketeers". The DOC controls much of the club and influences things although his temper and ego drives many families away (his way or the highway and not pleasant). The Academy Director tends to coach as many teams as possible to make it financially feasible. My experiences with the club president were pleasant but I hear he tends to follow the decisions of the other two. The second level in the club includes a few coaches and team managers that are preferenced and support/bats for the club management (they mostly coach many teams and are paid). You get what you pay for and leadership lacks the compassion and competency required to run a community soccer club. Good step for those coming from recreational soccer with low expectations. Other local clubs are more structured and deliver a better competitive soccer experience (although you pay a bit more). Just sharing our family experience. Enjoy the game!

ARFC is a very disorganized and poorly run program. There is a lack of communication coming from admin and you never know which team your child is going to be on. They have a nice indoor facility, but practices and home games can be in many locations around Sacramento. Many of the coaches do a great job but the head of the program, Mike Canty, is rude and disrespectful with little care for others.

Great futsal Facility to help the players develop year round. Affordable yet competitive option. Been pleased with the coaching staff and the improved skills seen on the field.
