BUSC
has a very long and proud history. You

roots go. Built by hundreds
of dedicated individuals, who have
spent thousands of volunteer hours
managing the club, training soccer
players and otherwise making sure
that boys in the Tri-Valley area
have a place to play quality soccer,
BUSC has become synonymous with soccer
of the highest quality.
Three generations of individuals
have now played, coached or have
been involved with Ballistic United
Soccer Club programs. In preparation
of the club's 40th anniversary, BUSC
