LMSA Recreational Soccer

LMSA's Recreational Soccer Program focuses on offering youth soccer opportunities in a balanced, fun, and competitive setting. LMSA Rec Soccer is committed to the enjoyment and development of soccer players without the emphasis on travel or high level competition.  Each player is given the opportunity to develop his or her soccer skills in way of practices and in games as players are organized onto a team of all skill levels. LMSA offers two recreational seasons, one in the fall and one in the spring. 

Recreational Leagues are administered at the local level that emphasize open participation and player registration, and employs a system of rostering players for the purpose of creating a fair and balanced distribution of playing talent among all participating Teams, and where each player plays at least one-half (1/2) of each game.
