Meet The Board: Adam Moore

Get to know our board members

We’re excited to kick off a new blog series, Get to Know Our Board, where we’ll shine a spotlight on the incredible volunteer board members who help keep Circle City FC moving forward.

These are the people working behind the scenes—giving their time, energy, and expertise—to support our players, families, and coaches and to help shape the future of our club. In each post, we’ll introduce you to one board member, share a bit about who they are, what they do, and why they’re passionate about Circle City FC, so you can get to know the faces and stories behind the club you’re a part of.

Check out our first one here if you missed it. Today, we focus on Adam Moore.

q: What is your current board position and role at circle city fc?

I am serving as vice-president. I help set and execute the goals and vision for the club. Current projects include facilities improvement and creating a coach training pathway. I coached for years in the rec program. I am currently coaching the 2012 Boys travel team. I am a certified referee which i wish i had more time for.

q: When did you join the ccfc board?

2024. Knowing now what it takes to make the club successful, I wish I had years earlier.

q: What inspired you to get involved with the club?

CCFC formerly Franklin Township Soccer Club was my club growing up. I was here for the creation of the club as a player, and very excited to return in adulthood for my children to play here as well. Speaking to board members and seeing needs that needed met, I knew that I could offer my skillset and give back to the club and community that supported me in my journey.

q: What's the most rewarding part of serving on the board?

Being part of a wonderful group of people serving the community and giving back to what was previously provided for me. Seeing kids discover their love for the sport I love.

q: What's one thing families might be surprised to learn about running a youth soccer club?

Being specifically a volunteer soccer club and trying our best to keep it accessible to everyone, requires a lot of time and boots on the ground. Collectively hundreds of hours are required every season to make sure we provide the best experience possible. We all say, "See you next season", but in reality when the trophies go out, we get back to work.

q: Why do you believe community involvement and volunteer leadership matter in youth sports?

I have been involved in soccer my entire life. I have seen many clubs do things in very different ways. In my opinion the grassroots, volunteer run model goes hand in hand with our community. No matter where you are the light of a volunteer will always shine. When our intention is purely to serve the needs of others, the rest is easy. The kids we serve here are the same ones that will be in our schools and a beyond, so we help create what we want to see and be a part of.

q: What would you say to someone considering getting involved with the club?

DO it and do it early. Your kids journey can also be a journey for you. I always find it funny when at the fields and a kid yells, "Hey coach", and half a dozen of us flip around. You get to see the community grow, literally. The five-year-old you coached or served could now be a middle schooler and they remember the experience you provided for them.

q: What is your favorite soccer memory?

I have had the pleasure of coaching all three of my kids, my daughters have moved on to other sports, but I still get to coach my son as well as the other 18 "sons" on his travel team. You get a bonus family and we make memories every time were together.

q: What soccer club (other than ccfc) do you support?

Wrexham AFC. The history behind the team is inspiring, and the entire community being a contributing factor to the club really resonates with me.
