Philosophy 

"We must have the same idea as each other. Keep the ball, create movement around and off the ball, get in the spaces to cause danger" RL

Tiki-taka (used by the Spanish) has been variously described as "a style of play based on making your way to the back of the net through short passing and movement" a "short passing style in which the ball is worked carefully through various channels," and a "nonsensical phrase that has come to mean short passing, patience and possession above all else" The style involves roaming movement and positional interchange amongst midfielders, moving the ball in intricate patterns, and sharp, one or two-touch passing.  Tiki-taka is "both defensive and offensive in equal measure"  the team is always in possession, so doesn't need to switch between defending and attacking.

Rosario the owner and head coach of Real Phoenix F.C. states: This philosophy can only be achieved by close play in small spaces.  For this reason most of the small pass drills and touch and go movements will be practiced indoors within our very own Futsal facility.  Rosario believes that Futsal will give his players an edge and quick learning curve to understanding the Tiki-taka way of football.  Rosario states that every player should play Futsal as part of their training, it developes a great first touch, quickness, and good decision making.  Futsal will be a big part of our training system.  In combination with indoor and outdoor training he feels that over time the general public will start to understand why Futsal and all forootball complement each other.     



About the Phoenix: 

Among the ancients a fabulous bird called the Phoenix is described by early writers ... in size and shape it resembles the eagle, but with certain differences. The body of the Phoenix is one covered with glossy purple feathers, and the plumes in its tail are alternately blue and red. The head of the bird is light in color, and about its neck is a circlet of golden plumage. At the back of its back the Phoenix has a crest of feathers of brilliant color ... The Phoenix, it is said, lives for 500 years, and at its death its body opens and the new born Phoenix emerges. Because of this symbolism, the Phoenix is generally regarded as representing immortality and resurrection ... The Phoenix is one sign of the secret orders of the ancient world and of the initiate of those orders, for it was common to refer to one who had been accepted into the temples as a man twice-born, or reborn. Wisdom confers a new life, and those who become wise are born again.

Created by Gentlemen:

On the 26th of October, 1863, the founding members of several football clubs around London met in the Freemasons' Tavern in the English Capital, setting the base for the future organization, that was deemed "Football Association". 

From reading this you can start to understand that a republic that would soon consume the world was being formed.  "Order out of Chaos" that was the message that the whole world was going to be chanting. The forefathers developed this republic that transcended all religions, race and economic status.  They were going to show the world that on the pitch in every country football was going to be the common ground where all participants and spectators could "Meet on the level and part upon the square" Where Truth, Relief and Brotherly Love" would manifest itself in a revolution of common bond and brotherhood.  At that moment at that exact time the Phoenix rose and emerged out of the old and created something new and bold.  The Phoenix is today the esteem symbol of all Freemasons as it speaks of an order of justice and freedom for all, it speaks of the rights of humans and the right to Life, Liberty and the Pusuit of Happiness...

Football is a Phoenix and Real Phoenix F.C. is Football.  It is our mission to bring a message to the masses.  That football is a way of life and a right that no man can ever take away.  It is in itself a right given by the hand of God so we can enjoy and share one common goal, to provide the next generation a platform in which to express themselves through the beautiful game.

A copycat name? No its paying tribute to the European roots of football and if football is not Royal then was is it? 

Join Real Phoenix F.C. as we embark on this journey to uphold the principal tenants of football and teach the community of Phoenix Arizona about the real game..
