ANNOUNCEMENT TO PARENTS, PLAYERS, COACHES, ALUMNI AND FRIENDS of the Boise Capitals
To Our Players, Parents, Coaches and Administrators,
We are pleased to announce that Les Bois Sports Association and the Boise Capital Soccer Club are deeply engaged in discussions regarding a merger of the two most successful clubs in Idaho.
There has been a memorandum of understanding approved by both Boards of Directors. The memorandum is the result of numerous meetings by an exploratory committee composed of board members from each club. It was determined we share similar ideals, commitments, training philosophies and structures, and that there are tremendous benefits to combining our resources.
Our vision is simple:
Become the major destination club for the area by improving soccer opportunities for every player at every level of interest and ability.
Set the Standard for quality soccer in Idaho through:
- Player development
- Coaching education
- Facilities and resources
- Performance at regional and national levels
- Outreach to the greater soccer community in coaching education and training
- Integration and facilitation of programming for all youth levels to U19 teams
- Fiscal accountability and stability while continuing to improve resources for current and future programming
The benefits of such a merger are numerous and include:
- Opportunities for players to grow in one club from a recreational introduction to college soccer placement
- Most qualified staff in the region
- Development of elite level players and teams capable of consistently competing for regional and national championships
- Resources and programs for players of all levels and interests
- Create opportunities for neighborhood based play in the Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Kuna, and Nampa communities for U5-U12 age groups
Our merger talks continue at a rapid pace. Our Directors of Coaching have completed the new club structure, programming, age appropriate curriculum, and transition plan to ensure meaningful staff, player, and team development.
We understand the anxiety of such an endeavor, and we assure all families and players that any and all concerns will be addressed with specific details to your teams/age groups. Please be assured we are committed to making this merger a positive and beneficial experience for every player, team, and family.
We are very excited about the creation of something very special through this collaboration. We now have all the tools necessary to be the most professional and successful club in the Region:
- Most experienced and licensed staff in the Northwest
- Most State Cup Champions in Idaho history; boys/girls
- The only Idaho club to have won Regional and National Championships
- Most successful college soccer placement program in Idaho
- Beautiful, soccer specific facility (Capitals Soccer Complex)
- Most comprehensive and professional Youth Development Program
We appreciate your support and look forward to sharing our vision of the new soccer star in the West, FC NOVA.
