Congratulations to our Anthracite FC N1 B2010/11 Arsenal on earning a promotion to the National 1 League (N1), the top team-based competition in US Club Soccer and US Youth Soccer!

Great work by the whole Arsenal squad! This promotion was made possible through the team's hard work and dedication, both on and off the field, the coaches that helped guide them on this journey, and the parents who have supported them every step of the way!

Arsenal now joins our N1 G2012/13 Barca who is already successfully competing at the N1 level. This is a big step for these players, for our club, and for soccer in Northeastern PA.

We can't wait to get the season started! Check back in for more updates on our 2011 Boys Arsenal team, and good luck to all of our High School players who are leading their teams through the post season.

While pink ribbons 🩷 and emerald green ribbons 💚 represent different journeys, they share a common goal: saving lives through education, early detection, and compassionate support.

Whether you wear pink, emerald green, or both this October, let’s commit to checking in on ourselves and supporting the warriors, survivors, and families affected by cancer.

👉 Share this post to spread the word—knowledge and early action save lives.
