Founder & Director
Mark Moreno is the founder of KC Class Youth Soccer Club.
Mark played for the Avellino soccer club for two years and finished his youth career with the 75 United team coached by Andy Barney. He lettered one year at J.C. Harmon High School and three years at Bishop Ward High School — starting all four years at center midfield and voted First Team Kansas City All-Metro his senior year.
In 1994, Mark had the opportunity to play at Avila University under Andy Barney and Andy's good friend Huw Williams. After one year at Avila, he transferred to the University of Kansas and graduated from the Engineering School with a Computer Science degree in 1998.
Mark's success on and off the field is a true representation of Andy's philosophy. After college, he spent 20+ years in the computer programming industry while volunteering with AmeriCorps, Boys and Girls Club, and Youthfriends. In 2000 he began his coaching career, eventually joining the KC Legends Soccer Club — and founding KC Class to give every child access to elite development and real mentorship.
Coach Mark believes the best coaches are also mentors. Every session is an opportunity to build confidence, leadership, discipline, resilience, and decision-making — qualities that serve players long after the final whistle.
Core values
Whether a player is just discovering the game or pursuing the next level, our commitment remains the same.
Email the clubFive teams. One standard.
Each video below is from our real training sessions. Same curriculum at every age level — the demands just grow with the player.
Joining a team
Step one
Send the player's birth year, current club or school, and position. We'll match the right group.
Step two
Players join a session before anything is decided. We watch how they compete, not just how they look in a drill.
Step three
Roster spots, fees, and season paperwork run through SportsEngine so everything stays in one place.
Our approach
We take the time to understand each player's strengths, challenges, goals, and learning style — tailoring instruction to help them reach their full potential.
