Elite FC
Ostrander
Elite FC, founded by Marc Kirsch in spring 1999, describes itself as Northwest Columbus' premier soccer club, serving Dublin, Delaware, Plain City, Powell, and Marysville from its primary facility in Ostrander. It fields players roughly U8 through the college-age range, with top teams competing in the Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) and the National Premier League (NPL) — both regional/national platforms — alongside a broader club structure below that tier. Training includes year-round options such as futsal and indoor work. The ratings on this profile describe the broader club tier; the ECNL/NPL tier at the top is more selective and demanding on cost and travel, described here but not separately rated.
