Steel City FC (800 x 200 px) (5)

Passion. pathway. promise.

We're the first club in Pittsburgh with a full pathway from youth to adult for both men's and women's soccer.

And we don't take that lightly.

Together, we are committed to teaching a sustainable, attractive style of soccer that fosters good long-term habits from an early age and yields consistent results in later years.

We empower players to express themselves by encouraging positive attacking play, providing tools for defensive solidity and instilling comfort with team tactical concepts.

What makes us different?
  • Phase Model of development
  • Player-first approach
  • Quality of our staff
  • USL League Two & USL W League First Teams

Our pathway and process speaks for itself.

From the Steel City FC Academy to the MLS.

Michael Sullivan trusted the Steel City process. Arriving as a youth player, he trained, competed, and evolved with us, becoming captain of our conference-winning Men's First Team.

His hard work and belief in the process led to him signing professionally for Toronto FC in the MLS. In his first season, he captained Toronto FC II of the MLS Next Pro.
