The mission of Eastern Football Club is to provide quality football for all. Since its founding in 1977, with its core values of Respect, Character, Integrity, Teamwork, and Patience informing a holistic approach to player development, Eastern FC has grown to become America’s premier soccer education provider. Youth sport is now more expensive than ever, especially in our region, and more quality soccer for more scholar-athletes means more expenses each year.

In 2002, Eastern FC parents Rich LaGreca and his wife Denise started The Eastern Soccer Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit that helps cover those costs as Eastern FC delivers on its mission to provide quality football for all. The Foundation has provided hundreds of families with vital financial support to allow their children to learn from premier soccer experiences they otherwise could not afford.

Rich LaGreca passed away in 2023, but the Eastern Soccer Foundation continues his legacy, helping ensure that all those interested in learning from a premier soccer experience are able to participate regardless of their financial position.
