Player / Parent Testimonials
Dont’t take our word for it – here’s what our CarShield FC families say:
CarShield and CarShield FC’s dedication to supporting youth sports in St Louis has been incredible. I believe that playing sports for kids is important because it builds hard work, work ethic, and discipline that carry over into other aspects of their life.”
~ Josh
Player Parent
[I] wanted to inform you that this past year with Matt Caution as our head coach, this soccer year has been one of the most productive, exciting, and inspiring years my son has ever had! He took a group of boys and helped develop them into young men! He has taught them the right way to play the game, he has taught them to never give up on themselves, each other, or the club. Matt Caution is, by far, the best example of what a head coach should be, and our boys are lucky to have him!

Player Parent
Soccer here at CarShield FC has allowed my girl to be her authentic self. CarShield FC coaches have definitely helped my girl develop on the field and off, and most of that has to do with the coaches engaging her personality in a way that fits her need”
