Founding Partner Opportunity
Building the next standard in player development, visibility, and community impact.
A premium youth development ecosystem powered by structured methodology, player accountability, and the Fidbak platform.

Why this matters
Most clubs train players and hope they improve. We built a system that measures, tracks, and proves development.
Every player follows a clear development path
Every session has a purpose
Every improvement is visible to players, parents, and coaches
Sponsors are placed inside a high-engagement ecosystem, not just on a jersey

PROBLEM
The gap in the market
Most youth clubs provide training. Very few provide a complete development system.
Families are paying for visible progress, clarity, and structure. Most programs still operate with inconsistent training, vague feedback, and no true player accountability.
02 / 12
What parents usually experience
Inconsistent
Training quality varies by coach, team, and week. Development becomes dependent on luck instead of system.
Invisible
Parents do not know exactly what their child is improving, where they stand, or what should happen next.
Unmeasured
Players receive generic praise or criticism, but not specific standards tied to role, execution, and outcomes.
What sponsors usually get
Passive Exposure
A logo that appears occasionally instead of a brand placed where families consistently engage.
Low Story Value
Support is not clearly connected to player growth, scholarships, opportunity, or community transformation.
No Ecosystem
There is no digital loop, no development transparency, and no premium reason for families to remember the sponsor weekly.
We are not creating another club. We are creating a player development ecosystem with weekly physical and digital engagement.
SYSTEM
Our solution
A complete development model built around structure, accountability, visibility, and growth.
The club document, coaching levels, and team development paths create a real operating system for how players and coaches improve inside Lackawanna Coal Miners.
03 / 12
1
Desired Results
Technical and tactical outcomes are clearly defined by level instead of left to chance.
2
Guidelines
Integrity, maturity, mentality, and club values shape the standard for players, parents, and coaches.
3
Resources
Training structure, tactical analysis, recovery, individual work, and preseason preparation are built into the system.
4
Accountability
Position-specific cards and role standards create measurable development and direct coaching feedback.
FIDBAK
Technology advantage
The Fidbak loop turns development into a daily engagement platform.
This is where your club becomes different. The Player Card tells players what matters. Fidbak shows players, parents, and coaches how they are actually doing.
04 / 12
REACH
Audience and visibility
Local trust. Regional corridor. Digital repetition.
Sponsors are not buying one weekend banner. They are buying recurring access to families inside a development-driven community that extends across northeastern Pennsylvania and the southern tier.
05 / 12
120–160
Projected players in Year 1 across the initial club buildout and growth funnel.
240–320
Parents and guardians directly interacting with club updates, progress, and events.
1,000+
Monthly digital impressions through Fidbak, social content, development communication, and highlight sharing.
4 Markets
Scranton, Abington, Binghamton, and Stroudsburg create a regional corridor instead of a single-town sponsorship.
Physical Exposure
On field and event presence
Jerseys, training kits, camps, clinics, matchdays, team banners, field signage, and community sessions keep brands visible in person.
Digital Exposure
Weekly and recurring impressions
Parent emails, Fidbak visibility, role cards, video highlights, and social campaigns create repetition where family attention already exists.
Emotional Exposure
Aligned with growth and opportunity
Your brand is connected to scholarships, accountability, player growth, and a club culture built around discipline and character.
WHY US
Differentiation
Why sponsor LCM instead of any other local club?
Because this is not standard youth soccer. This is a measurable, branded, technology-supported development system that creates a better experience for families and stronger alignment for partners.
06 / 12
Typical club sponsorship
Logo on jersey
Occasional event visibility

Role cards, highlights, newsletters, and development updates create repeated exposure
Founding partners gain legacy positioning as the club scales
