Leavenworth Soccer Association
We are a non-profit 501(c) organization that provides options for children in Leavenworth County to play soccer in a safe and enjoyable environment. Our Rec program is the perfect fit for beginning players or anyone who just wants to enjoy the game playing with their friends. The Academy program is geared towards individual development and small group training to grow each player based on their progression. Our Premier (LUSC) environment is the next step up for youth interested in growing their skills beyond recreational play and prepare them for high school soccer. Our organization has a wonderful referee mentoring/coaching program to help new refs gain knowledge and confidence running games.
