CC United Soccer

What CC United Soccer does

CC United Soccer Club is a Minnesota-based non-profit 501(c) youth soccer organization founded in 1989, headquartered in Chanhassen and serving the Carver, Chanhassen, Chaska, and Victoria communities in the southwest Twin Cities metro. The club delivers a vertically integrated soccer product spanning recreational leagues (PreK through 8th grade across Fall, Winter, and Spring seasons), a bridge development program (CCUD) for U6–U8 players, competitive travel teams for U9–U19 across four tiers (ECNL-RL, National 1, Regional/State, and Cities), summer camps (Goalkeeper, Tryout Prep, Technical Positioning, High School Prep, Kickers), indoor winter training at the District 112 Dome, adult co-ed and women's leagues, and the annual Paisley Cup tournament. Programs are delivered across 13 documented venues including municipal parks and school facilities, with the District 112 Dome used for winter indoor play.

The underlying technology stack is deliberately lightweight and third-party: PlayMetrics handles all registration, donations, financial-aid processing, and club administration; Soccer.com and Signature Concepts distribute Adidas-branded competitive uniforms in a two-year cycle (Fall 2026–Summer 2028); and a "Step By Step" video-based curriculum supports volunteer recreational coaches. No proprietary software, mobile app, or AI/ML capability is disclosed.

The business model is a non-profit fee-for-service model combined with fundraising. Revenue streams include program registration fees (ranging from $80 for recreational to $2,020 for top-tier competitive summer seasons), uniform pass-through sales, tournament entry fees ($475–$575 per team), corporate sponsorships (15+ local partners for 2025–2026 across jersey and community tiers), and tax-deductible donations channeled through the John Tudor Scholarship Fund, which directly supports 100+ players annually. The club markets through community events, local school partnerships (District 112), email, organic social, and word-of-mouth, with the PlayMetrics platform as the primary conversion surface.
