“We are committed to providing a high-quality training environment for our players, which has enabled them to compete at the highest levels of the sport,” Ryan said.
The club’s dedication to developing players has paid off, with two former Loudoun County FC players representing Team USA in the Olympics. Midfielder Sarah Smith and forward John Doe both honed their skills at the club before making it to the national team.

Doe echoed Smith’s sentiments, commenting on the club’s emphasis on teamwork and discipline. “Playing for Loudoun County FC taught me the importance of working together with my teammates and always giving maximum effort on the field,” he said.
With the success of Smith and Doe on the international stage, Loudoun County FC has gained recognition as a premier youth soccer club in the United States. The club’s reputation for producing top talent has attracted young players from across the country who are eager to follow in the footsteps of their Olympic counterparts.
Looking ahead, Loudoun County FC remains dedicated to providing a supportive and competitive environment for young soccer players to grow and develop their skills.
