The heart behind FC Bartlesville Buffaloes.
We’re kicking off our “Spread the Word. Know the Buffaloes.” movement — and we’re inviting you to be part of it.

Our mission goes beyond soccer. It’s about sharing who we are, what we stand for, and how faith, family, and football come together in Bartlesville. As we head into our biggest season yet — with clinics, camps, and a championship on the horizon — we want our community to know:FC Bartlesville isn’t just building players.
We’re building future leaders. Future Christ's followers.
We were built to play — to give our best in training, in competition, and in character.
“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.”— Colossians 3:23
We were born to serve — to lift up those around us, to care for our neighbors, and to make the game accessible to every child.
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace.”— 1 Peter 4:10
And we are blessed to lead — not through pride, but by example, humility, and faith.
“Whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant.”— Matthew 20:26
