From a coaching stand point, long-term player development is the first priority of the Saline FC program.  For the Club, the Teams and its Players to achieve their long term goals, we have set forth a standard of values for our program that all participants are expected to subscribe to.  Failure to follow and respect these commitments may result in a parent or player being suspended from the program and/or a full dismissal from the program.
