Founded in 1981, the Strikers have won numerous state championships and qualified at least one or more teams in the Regional tournament since 1983. This success has been the result of seeking out and supporting the best coaching available in the community as well as the dedication and commitment of the players and parents to the hard work and sacrifice required to win more than our share of matches. In 1996, our U19 boys team, coached by Geoff Birnbaum, advanced to the quarterfinals at the Regional IV tournament by defeating a team from California south.
Strikers continue to have strong winning records in Montana soccer.
The goal of the Missoula Strikers is to teach, develop and promote the game of soccer. The primary objective of the club is to develop high-caliber soccer players in a constructive environment conducive to the player's positive mental and physical health. Players should be placed in a learning environment that is appropriate to their physical and mental abilities. Age appropriate soccer training, combined with quality soccer information is the foundation of the Striker player development philosophy.
