History

The Tophat Soccer Club traces its beginning back to the Spring of 1982, when the original Under-12 Tophatters were formed at Atlanta's Northside YMCA. The team name was taken from Cy Strickler's Navy Fighter Squadron, VF-14. The Fighting Fourteen "Tophatters" are the Navy's oldest active squadron and have a history filled with pride and excellence. Many of our players have seen the "Big Top Hat" in the Navy display of the Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC.
