Soccer Wars Announces Partnership with Sacramento Republic FC

Sacramento, CA — Soccer Wars is proud to announce a new partnership with Sacramento Republic FC to bring its club-neutral, individualized soccer programming to the greater Sacramento area, beginning with its first event on March 28–29, 2026, with plans to return annually to California.

This collaboration aligns two organizations committed to growing the game, expanding access, and creating positive soccer experiences for players and families throughout one of the country’s strongest soccer communities.

Soccer Wars is a national, individualized soccer competition designed to complement — not replace — traditional club soccer. Built by former professional players and run by a family-led team, Soccer Wars provides a fun, high-energy soccer festival where players of all levels register as individuals, rotate teammates throughout the event, and compete in fast-paced games and challenges that reward effort, decision-making, and impact.

“Our goal has always been to help bring fun back into soccer while creating a fair, club-neutral platform where every player feels welcome,” said Casey Clark, CEO of Soccer Wars. “We’re incredibly excited to be working with Sacramento Republic FC and Filip. At this stage of our growth, we want to partner with good people who are in the game for the right reasons — and Filip embodies that.”

Clark emphasized that partnering with a professional club rooted in the local soccer culture was a key factor in bringing Soccer Wars to Sacramento.

“Working with Sacramento Republic FC checks a major box for us,” Clark added. “Sacramento is a true soccer hotspot, and partnering with a respected professional organization allows us to deliver events that are open to players from all clubs, all backgrounds, and all levels. That’s core to who we are and how we operate.”

“As part of my role at Sacramento Republic FC, I’m focused on expanding access to engaging soccer experiences across our community,” said Filip Handl, Manager of Soccer Programming. “Soccer Wars shares that vision, and through Goalie Wars and Player Wars we’re able to deliver high-energy events each year that welcome players of all backgrounds to compete and express themselves.”

The Soccer Wars Sacramento event will feature multiple programs, including Player Wars for field players, Goalie Wars for goalkeepers, and optional skill-based challenges — all delivered in a professionally run, family-friendly festival atmosphere. Players compete within their age groups, gain hundreds of meaningful touches, and experience soccer in an environment designed to build confidence, independence, and love for the game.

This partnership also supports Sacramento Republic FC’s ongoing initiatives to grow soccer in the region by providing new, accessible development opportunities that engage families and strengthen the local soccer ecosystem.

Soccer Wars plans to establish Sacramento as a recurring annual stop on its national tour, reinforcing its commitment to California as its home state while continuing to expand its reach nationwide.
