Host a Player

Every summer, young aspiring soccer players move to Rochester to play the game they love. Over approximately 10 weeks, players hone their skills with intense training sessions, practices and a minimum of 14 games. The Med City FC roster is made up of local, national and international players seeking to better themselves personally and as soccer players.

The Med City FC Host Family Program is a vital part of our success both on and off the field. Moving to an unfamiliar city can be daunting. But host families provide players with a sense of normalcy and help them acclimate to their new surroundings. Often this creates a strong bond between player and family that lasts well into the future.

To ensure the program’s success, players follow strict housing rules.

Becoming a Host Family

All interested persons or families must submit an application and should be able to provide:

  • A clean, legal bedroom in a stable and safe environment during the soccer season.

  • Access to nutritious food, either prepared by you or the player(s), to keep their bodies properly fueled for game day.

The benefits of serving as a host family/parent include:

  • Team merchandise and ticket options for the entire family.

  • Making a positive impact on the life of a young adult.

  • Increasing your involvement in the community.

  • Developing a lasting relationship for you and your family.

  • Participating in a nationally recognized program affiliated with the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and the United States Amateur Soccer Association (USASA).
