The club

I co-founded Folsom Fight in February 2024, while I was president of CU Boulder Club Soccer, and grew it into a semi-pro side competing in the Mountain Premier League. The club also hosted CU Boulder's spring season training, and its tryouts were open to players across the larger Colorado area.

The club was a semi-pro and amateur development team, aimed at developing players for professional and collegiate opportunities.

From a new name to a league side: I built Folsom Fight from its name and identity up, and it grew into a semi-pro team in the Mountain Premier League with open tryouts for players across Colorado.
