Club Philosophy
PAL FC is a futbol club that practices and teaches the four pillars of the game. Excellence is a hallmark of PAL FC and applies to all areas of the club, including leading by example for the community through futbol. This demands that we always offer the highest quality standards in all of the challenges we face. We develop the value of excellence through quality, leadership, demands and talent.
The legacy of PAL FC is based on morality and virtues, connecting futbol and life, and connecting the body and mind. This is a nuanced sport, requiring physical and mental resilience, spatial intelligence and the ability to think several steps ahead of your opponent. Therefore, one's play style is very much a window into their psychological makeup - beyond how fast someone runs or how accurately they can shoot, the decision-making and thought processes behind their actions are largely rooted in their personality.
Our overriding mentality is our winning spirit, which defines our attitude in every aspect and sees us adopt a positive attitude to the objectives we set ourselves each season. The attitude that our players have towards life goes a long way to determining the success we are able to achieve in terms of our objectives. We foster our winning spirit through committment, determination, effort, perseverance, sacrifice and self-improvement.
We show 100% committment to all of our on-field objectives by adopting a team-based philosophy. All of us who are a part of PAL FC, both employees and fans, work together with a focus on winning the next game. It's an organizational philosophy through which we commit to achieving our objectives with camaraderie, generosity, togetherness and the empathy to achieve a common goal.
PAL FC treats individuals, institutions, and businesses with respect. We conduct ourselves in good faith and respect all of the teams that we compete against and their fans. Off the pitch, we enjoy brotherly and supportive relationships with all of the other clubs, whilst offering them and the national and international sporting authorities our continued support.
PAL FC's universality extends beyond borders, is timeless and is accessible to everyone in the world. It doesn't consider race, ideologies, cultures, religions, ways of thinking, place of origin or social status. A universal PAL FC is a global, multicultural, equal and apolitical PAL FC, which is what makes us a multigenerational and eternal club.
Our solidarity involves a committment to be there for those who need it most, particularly children at risk from social exclusion. PAL FC has to play a useful role within society as a way of thanking society for everything it will give to us. Solidarity is a non-negotiable value that we promote through our moral and valueable foundation, the soul of our club.
We firmly believe that humility is an essential characteristic as we seek to improve every day. Everything that we achieve is the result of sacrifice and hard work, and humility enables us to avoid becoming complacent. PAL FC considers our opponents to be of equal merit in a showing of utmost respect and evert achievement represents a starting point to try and accomplish the next challenge.
