Tupelo Futbol Club

Overview

Tupelo Futbol Club (TFC) develops competitive players ages 6-18 in Tupelo and Starkville, MS. Operates TFC Academy (U6-U8), Tupelo Development League, and competitive program U9-U19. Claims to offer “the highest level of play available in Mississippi” — a competitive claim vs mississippi-rush-united’s ECNL.

Financials

TBD.

Teams & Players

Boys and girls U8 and older (2017-2006 age range).

League Affiliations

• ecnl-rl
• US Youth Soccer Mid South
• mississippi-soccer-association state league

Facilities

Tupelo and Starkville municipal fields.

Leadership

TBD.

Competitive Position

Second-tier statewide position — ECNL RL is a tier below mississippi-rush-united’s ECNL. Strong in Northeast Mississippi (Tupelo, Starkville, Oxford catchment).

Investment Thesis

Lower priority. Small scale. However, birmingham-united-soccer-association already operates Alabama FC Tupelo as a partnership affiliate, meaning Tupelo’s competitive landscape is already bifurcated.

Open Questions

• Revenue
• Relationship/competition with Alabama FC Tupelo
• Is TFC a potential merger partner for mississippi-rush-united?
