Impact City FC

What Impact City FC does

Impact City FC (ICFC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, faith-based youth soccer organization founded in 2019 by Aaron DeLoach in St. Louis, Missouri and currently headquartered in North Palm Beach, Florida. It operates a portfolio of programs that integrate high-level soccer coaching with Christian discipleship, serving boys and girls from approximately age 4 through 18 across club teams competing in Nike Premier leagues, plus Juniors Academy (ages 4-7), Technical Training (ages 8-11), After School Programs (grades K-5), Summer Camps, and Private Training. ICFC complements these paid programs with three outreach verticals: CityReach (free grassroots soccer for underserved urban communities), Chaplaincy for professional soccer clubs via its founding-membership in the Pro Soccer Chaplains Association (covering 100+ MLS/NWSL/USL teams), and Missions Experiences (international trips to Haiti, El Salvador, Israel, Argentina). Its technology layer consists of the Impact Coaching Academy (ICA), an online education platform offering an 11-lesson ICA Trained course ($197 lifetime), an ICA Licensed masterclass, and the ICA Network resource library — collectively training 400+ coaches globally with a stated goal of 1,000,000 soccer ministers.

The organization generates revenue through a diversified mix: recurring club team registration fees, seasonal program tuition ($60-$250 per participant), camp fees ($100-$250), private training, the ICA course ($197 one-time), and a meaningful donation and sponsorship component that includes $40/month recurring "Squad" gifts, annual golf tournament sponsorships ($300-$15,000), Legacy Gala partnership tiers at The Breakers Palm Beach ($5,000-$50,000), and recurring club sponsorships ($2,000-$15,000). Go-to-market is community-led and event-driven, leveraging church partnerships, word-of-mouth referrals, multi-channel digital presence (website, social, monthly newsletter), and signature fundraising events. Operational infrastructure is lightweight: about 15 direct employees, 90+ licensed coaches across locations, and integrations with Playmetrics (registration), Qgiv (event registration/donations), and Dover (recruiting).

Scale indicators12 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Athletes in Action: Sports ministry of Cru (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ) with chaplaincy, camps, and team programs across multiple sports. Comparable in faith-based athlete-development focus and international missions scope, but broader than ICFC's soccer-specific niche.
• Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA): Large, established interdenominational ministry serving athletes, coaches, and communities across the US and globally. Overlaps with ICFC's chaplaincy and coaching-education work but at a much broader scale and across all sports, not just soccer.

Direct peers

• SC del Sol: Elite youth soccer club in Arizona that competes in Nike Premier leagues with a national-team development pipeline. Comparable to ICFC's competitive club product offering at the elite youth tier, though secular in positioning.
• Street Soccer USA: National nonprofit operating soccer-based programs for individuals experiencing homelessness and social exclusion, with programs in multiple US cities. Comparable to ICFC in combining a social-impact mission with multi-city sport delivery and a recurring-donor funding model.
• Soccer in the Streets: Atlanta-based nonprofit that leverages soccer as a tool for youth development and community transformation, with programs integrated into schools and underserved neighborhoods. Comparable to ICFC's CityReach initiative in combining free grassroots programming with life-skills and character development.
• KICS International (Kids In Christ's Soccer): Faith-based nonprofit operating soccer programs in developing countries, combining athletic and spiritual development. Comparable to ICFC's Haiti operations and ICA curriculum in using soccer explicitly as a vehicle for gospel sharing and coaching education.
• Legends FC: Multi-location competitive youth soccer club operating in multiple US markets (including Southern California) with elite-tier and development-pathway programming. Comparable to ICFC's competitive club product and multi-city footprint strategy.
• America SCORES: National nonprofit that uses soccer, poetry, and service-learning to empower youth in underserved urban communities. Highly comparable: similar mission of youth development through soccer in low-income areas, multi-city footprint, and school-based delivery model analogous to ICFC's CityReach and after-school programs.
• Charlotte Eagles: Faith-based professional and developmental soccer organization based in Charlotte, NC. Founded as a Christian ministry using soccer for community impact. Highly comparable: ICFC founder Aaron DeLoach played professionally for the Charlotte Eagles before founding ICFC.

Regional players

• Solar Soccer Club: Faith-based, family-oriented competitive youth soccer club based in Texas with community-mission focus. Comparable to ICFC's values-based, church-partnered model of competitive youth soccer development, though operating regionally in Dallas/Fort Worth.
