Our Vision
Providing a pathway for accessibility to excellence in soccer for those that may not be able to participate beyond recreational programs due to financial constraints. We seek to develop kids’ ability to make good decisions on the field, and more importantly, in life.
Our Mission
To impact lives through the sport of soccer. We recognize the importance of team sports in the development of children and the inherent benefits of team work, community, fair play, inclusion and collaboration for a purpose bigger than self.

US Youth Soccer Age Group Change
U.S. Soccer has announced an age group realignment for the coming year.
Returning Nations players will have the option to try out and play with their current Nations team in their existing age group, or they may choose to try out for their new age group based on parent preference. Players who are not returning from the full 2025–2026 season will be evaluated according to the new age group structure. The updated age group chart is below, using the TSSA's August 1- July 31 Seasonal Year.
