Overview

Mission

The purpose of this organization shall be to promote, foster, and perpetuate the game of soccer on an amateur level for girls, and to provide competition for its member Clubs and teams inaccordance with the highest standards of good sportsmanship and fair play.

What it reported doing in 2019

Philadelphia Area Girls Soccer is the largest girls soccer league in the Mid-Atlantic area. PAGS is comprised of more than 50 Clubs, with over 150 teams, and in excess of 3,000 players. The caliber of competition in the League regularly attracts teams from Eastern and Central Pennsylvania, as well as Delware and New Jersey. PAGS teams regularly win State, Regional, and National Championships. PAGS prides itself on offering the approprite level of competition for all of our member teams. To accomplish this goal PAGS offers two conferences in the fall nine game season season. The PAGS Premier Conference (PPC) is for U11 to U18 teams seeking the highest level of competition. Teams apply for acceptance similar to a tournament and slots in the PPC will be awarded on a competitive basis. Division placement will be strictly based upon competitive level. For teams who seek competitive soccer with less emphasis on travel and more emphasis on development PAGS offers the PAGS Charlotte Moran Conference (PCMC). All U9 and U10 teams will play in the PCMC. U11 to U14 teams may apply to the PCMC. All applicants will be accepted into the PCMC. Divisional placement will be based primarily on geography, with some emphasis on competitive level.In addition to the two full season options described above PAGS offers a fall three game short season option for U15-U19 teams who wish to become cup qualified.The PAGS spring season is a time for experimentation and trying new players and consists of a six game schedule. We offer significant roster flexibility, including the use of guest players, and the ability to schedule to meet the needs of cup play and spring sports.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
