OUR MISSION

Mission

The mission of Highland Scots Soccer is to promote the defined core values in an environment where all levels of players will enjoy their soccer experience. We choose to focus on the longevity of a player’s development as opposed to short-term results and performances. Highland Scots Soccer will provide youth with the opportunity to participate in a soccer experience where they can develop positive self-esteem and build character by learning the virtues of hard work, fair play, respect, honesty, self-control, teamwork and sportsmanship. This high quality experience begins with providing our youth with high quality coaches. It is our duty to ensure our coaches have the necessary tools and training to succeed as a positive coach. While our goal is to build the best young athlete on and off the field, we hope to also build lasting positive relationships with parents and members of the community who are ultimately the foundation of Highland Scots Soccer.
