Kettering Football Club began within the community of Kettering College, where a group of students came together with a shared passion for soccer, staying active, and building meaningful connections. What began as a small idea to bring students together through the game quickly grew into a dedicated team committed to pursuing higher levels of competition.

The club first joined the Dayton Amateur Soccer League (DASL), training across local fields and turf facilities throughout Kettering and Dayton. Over time, the team’s commitment, chemistry, and community support helped it grow beyond its original college roots.

Today, Kettering FC is stepping into the semi-professional landscape through the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL), a national league that provides advanced competition and a pathway for player development.

At its core, Kettering FC is built on three pillars:

Opportunity. Connection. Inspiration.

The club exists to provide driven players with true opportunities to compete at higher levels, to shape strong relationships on and off the field, and to inspire others to pursue their passion for the game. As Kettering FC continues to grow, the mission remains the same - to promote local talent, strengthen community bonds, and build a program that represents excellence, dedication, and possibility.
