Welcome to Celtic Nation!

Celtic FC Florida is Florida’s premier youth soccer club.  Located in Largo, Celtic FC Florida is a non-profit organization that has been providing competitive and recreational soccer programs to the youth in our community since 1998.

Celtic FC Florida, formerly known as Gulf Coast United, recently partnered with European soccer powerhouse, Celtic Football Club of Scotland and became officially recognized as an International Youth Academy affiliate of the Celtic FC.  Because of this partnership, Celtic FC Florida is able to provide our players with the comprehensive training methods of the Celtic Youth Academy, or what we like to call learning to play soccer, “The Celtic Way”.  This new alliance allows our club to provide our families with exceptional player development and to compete at the highest levels in the country and abroad.

Celtic FC Florida is committed to providing a challenging and exciting soccer experience to all players within the Celtic Family as we strive to develop the next generation of soccer players.  In order to achieve our goals, our club is committed to the following principles and objectives:

- To be a respected representative of our community

- To respect the history, traditions and principles of the sport and of the Celtic Football Club

- To provide a positive atmosphere and safe learning environment to the entire Celtic Family

- To believe in our players, support their ambitions, and help guide their long-term goals

- To provide a meaningful soccer training program with opportunities for growth in both physical and character development

- To teach each and every one of our players the best practices, fundamentals, and advanced techniques of the game

- To always be available to listen and learn from our parents, players, and supporters so we may constantly strive to improve our club

We believe in our club and we hope you’ll join us as we strive to live soccer the Celtic Way!
