Alderidge FC Arctic Wolves was founded  in 2026 by a dedicated group of volunteer coaches—Neil Mohaghegh, Dane Larsen, Marco Quiñones, Rod Smith, and Othman Riad—who shared a passion for developing young athletes in their community. Working with children ages 5–10, the coaches recognized both the enthusiasm and potential within their players and sought to create something more structured and impactful. Today, we field teams across three age groups: U9, U10, and U11.

The name Alderidge FC originated from Neil Mohaghegh and Billy Ngo, reflecting their roots in the Alderidge community of Lynnwood, Washington. As the program grew, the full name Alderidge FC Arctic Wolves was adopted to represent a “pack mentality”—emphasizing teamwork, resilience, and collective growth. Over time, the program expanded to include multiple teams across different age groups, with players demonstrating readiness to move beyond recreational soccer.

We are proudly rooted in the local community. Our mission is to provide a positive and competitive environment where young athletes can develop their skills, build lasting friendships, and grow both on and off the field. With the support and commitment of families, the organization formally took shape. Key contributors include Team President Jon Haynes, board members Dane Larsen and Whitney Glendenning, and media and website coordinator Brandon Walker.
