We’re building a soccer club from our shared history, for our shared future.
About us
Our journey is defined by a strong local connection to Sarasota and a passion for the beautiful game. At Sarasota Paradise, our values are deeply rooted in the local community. We believe in creating a team that reflects the spirit and identity of Sarasota. Our commitment to nurturing local talent and providing a platform for aspiring players is at the core of everything we do. Through collaboration and dedication, we aim to build a legacy that the people of Sarasota can stand behind. Our club has quickly become a symbol of pride for the Sarasota community. The journey began when Marcus Walfridson, a devoted soccer entrepreneur from Sweden, fell in love with Sarasota, recognizing the need for a local soccer team. Sarasota residents were invited to suggest team names, and “Sarasota Paradise” emerged as the perfect embodiment of our team’s connection to this beautiful city. Our first home game was a defining moment, as we faced Miami City FC. The crowd of over 600 witnessed a stunning comeback, with Felipe Rojas scoring the first goal in Paradise history, leading to a memorable 2-1 victory. Our second home game showcased the team’s resilience, turning a 2-0 halftime deficit into a thrilling 3-2 victory. Fabrizio Bernal, Isaiah Easley, and Kai Tamashiro led the charge. We faced setbacks as well, including a home loss against Weston FC. But the team’s fighting spirit was evident as we bounced back with a last-minute goal by Kai Tamashiro against St. Pete FC. Our season concluded with a historic turnout of 1083 fans for our final home game. Hometown hero Ryan Sims scored a late goal, sealing a memorable 1-1 tie. Sarasota Paradise is 100% owned and operated by Audigr Group Inc., a global sports and entertainment enterprise. Audigr unifies business, marketing, athletic, and administrative expertise that creates consequential, lasting value at any scale for owners, athletes, management, and communities.

Losing sucks. Especially when you hit the post a couple of times, get balls cleared off the line and goals disallowed. But man do we look much better this year than last. Let’s see if we can get a bit of Lady Luck on our side too….
