FC TEANECK is a Teaneck Junior Soccer League (TJSL) program for Teaneck residents 6 to 18 years of age that are looking for a more competitive, year-round soccer experience. Players are selected for FC TEANECK teams following an evaluation by TJSL’s Director of Coaching and/or professional trainer(s).
The objective of FC TEANECK is to develop soccer skills, team concepts and an appreciation and enthusiasm for soccer. While competitive play is part of the learning process, the winning of games should not be the measure of success.
FC TEANECK expects all coaches, players, and parents to act in a publicly appropriate manner at all events and activities and adhere to TJSL’s Code of Conduct. In addition, FC TEANECK parents and guardians shall consent to the following FC TEANECK Participant Agreement:

I understand that FC TEANECK requires a commitment through June (end of the soccer season).
