FC Frederick and Mercersburg Academy Partner for Senior Boys Program
FC Frederick is proud to announce a new partnership with Mercersburg Academy that will bring the Club’s Senior Boys Travel Program to the Mercersburg Academy campus beginning with the 2025–26 travel season.
This collaboration builds upon a long-standing relationship between the two organizations. Mercersburg hosts FC Frederick’s “Marvelous Mercersburg” Overnight Camp during the summer, and over the years, numerous Mercersburg student-athletes have worn the FC Frederick crest, going on to excel in college and beyond.
Teams in this program will be comprised of players from Mercersburg Academy and the surrounding area, training and competing under the FC Frederick banner on the Mercersburg campus under the leadership of Skyler Clark, Mercersburg’s Boys Varsity Soccer Head Coach.
“I’m thrilled to be partnering with FC Frederick to build an environment that challenges players on and off the field,” said Coach Skyler Clark, Head Coach at Mercersburg Academy. “Our shared commitment to player development and character will create a truly unique experience for motivated student-athletes seeking to reach their potential.”
“Our relationship with Mercersburg has always been special,” said Bo Eskay, FC Frederick’s Executive Director and Director of Coaching. “The Academy’s beautiful campus, academic values, and strong soccer tradition make it an ideal home for our Senior Boys Program. With Coach Clark’s leadership and our shared developmental philosophy, we’re excited to create something exceptional for players in the region.”
“This partnership represents an exciting opportunity for players who want to balance elite-level soccer with an exceptional academic environment,” added Colin Viti, FC Frederick’s Senior Boys Director. “Coach Clark’s vision and Mercersburg’s facilities align perfectly with FC Frederick’s mission to develop complete players—technically, tactically, and personally.”
Together, FC Frederick and Mercersburg Academy will provide a college-preparatory training and competition environment, combining top-level coaching, elite facilities, and a holistic approach to developing student-athletes.
