Registration has come and gone for all age groups, teams have been formed and coaches have been assigned! Next up... training and games!

Nick and General Manager, Ryan Arotin, lead a rec coaches meeting on March 2. Thank you to the more than 50 rec coaches who came and those who couldn't make it, feel free to check it out on our YouTube Channel.

After starting spring training indoors during the last few days of February, all teams have been able to start training outdoors again.

Our PDP (Player Development Program) has started back up, along with all competitive teams. The high school boys take the field in the spring to play club, as the high school girls transition to play with their high school teams.

Last Thursday, Palisade defeated Grand Junction HS 4-1 at Unity Field (CMU). Fire FC '06 Premier player, Mia Villegas-Decker, scored a hat-trick in the first half and assisted the fourth goal in the second half for Palisade HS.
