J. B. Marine began
sponsoring soccer teams in 1978 when our chairman, George Foster, began
coaching his eldest daughters' team under the name of his business, the
Jefferson Barracks Marine Service Company. J. B. Marine is a barge service
company located on the Mississippi river just south of the Jefferson Barracks
bridge. In 1985 the club was incorporated as a separate not-for-profit
organization and has grown through the years to its present 39 teams in the St.
Louis Metropolitan area. In 1991 the club won its first National Championship
in the U-19 Girls' age group. As one of the many accolades received that year,
the team was invited to meet the President at the White House with the Women's
National team, which had won it's first World Cup title that summer. That
championship started a string of six National Championships over the next
twenty years with the most recent title coming in 2011 with a Gold medal at the
U-23 age group. In the history of girl's/women's soccer, only seven National
titles have been awarded to Missouri teams and J. B. Marine has six of those
titles, a record that we are extremely proud of. |

The club is founded on
the philosophy that competitive sports, and soccer in particular, serve a
useful purpose in the development of our youth. In the proper environment,
soccer teaches teamwork, discipline, sportsmanship, and other positive
qualities. The winning of numerous championships is an outgrowth of this
philosophy.
J.
B. Marine's first championship in 1991 started a string of six National
Championships over the next twenty years including the most recent title coming
in 2011 with a Gold medal at the U-23 age group.
In the history of
girl's/women's soccer, only seven National titles have been awarded to Missouri
teams and J. B. Marine has six of those titles, a record that we are extremely
proud of. |
