A Message From Coach Ed Kelly: 

Greetings,  

We would like to thank you for considering the Eagles Soccer Program as a way to develop your child's game. This responsibility is something my staff and I take very seriously. We want to ensure that the quality experience upon which our reputation has grown over the past 15 years continues to grow in the years to come. We have compiled a staff of coaches with diverse playing and coaching backgrounds who bring a wealth of knowledge to the soccer field.

The Eagles Day Clinics are designed to be fun and educational. Players are grouped by both age and skill level so that each child is challenged, but not overwhelmed. We provide an enjoyable learning environment for all participants from the beginners to the advanced.  

Our goal has always been to develop the child's soccer ability while they are still having fun. We offer day programs for the player working on their technical proficiency and offer advanced residential programs for  players who want to prepare for varsity, premier or collegiate levels. We look forward to having you join us this summer.  

- Ed Kelly, Head Coach | BC Men's Soccer

About the Newton Campus: 

Nestled behind the law school on Boston College's Newton Campus is one of the nation's elite soccer and lacrosse facilities.

Completely updated in 2008, the Newton Campus Soccer and Lacrosse Complex features a newly installed Polytan artificial playing surface.  

Polytan surfaces are used at the World Cup Stadium in Stuttgart, Germany, the Olympic Stadium in Munich, the Football Academy FC Bayern, the Stadium La Maladiere in Switzerland and Warsteiner Stadium, host of the 2006 World Cup.  

With the addition of the Polytan artificial playing surface, coupled with off-season updates that include permanent team benches canopied to guard against the elements and a 30-seat, enclosed press box complete with a roof-deck video-filming area, Boston College is proud to boast a brand new state-of-the-art facility.

"The field is one of a kind in this country. It's absolutely a fantastic field. It shows the commitment of our University and our athletic director to put that kind of resources into our athletics programs."
