RESPECT FFC PARK

FFC Park is owned and maintained by Fredericksburg FC. Great care and attention is taken to ensure that FFC Parks' facilities are some of the best in the area, with all-grass fields. On occasion, the park may be closed due to maintenance or to preserve the grounds after heavy or consistent rain. FFC appreciates your understanding when these natural events occur that are beyond our control.

It is important that all visitors to FFC Park respect the facilities.

  • NO PETS are permitted. Service animals are welcome.
  • NO SMOKING - NO TOBACCO PRODUCTS OR VAPING
  • No digging/picking at the fields or surrounding areas
  • No climbing on soccer goals/nets

Where do Spectators Sit?

Unless otherwise directed, spectators should sit on the opposite sideline to the teams/coaches. Spectators should sit between the 18yd lines and should not be to the side of the penalty areas nor behind the end line/goals - this is particularly important for games that are U12 and above as it greatly helps the game officials/referees.
