Sporting Athletic Club is made possible thanks to its founding partnerships. The Sporting Athletic Club Network is a collaborative player pathway relationship formed alongside our founding member clubs Lower Merion SC, Radnor SC and Sporting Delaware (now Sporting AC) for the U13 through U19 age groups. Sporting Athletic Club teams home will be at Chase Fieldhouse in Wilmington, Delaware. Training sessions and competitions will also be held at WSFS Bank Sportsplex in Chester, Pennsylvania.
