Welcome
Longmeadow Soccer Association is a group of parent volunteers who
enjoy the game of soccer almost as much as we enjoy seeing our kids
playing and having fun. The In-Town
program serves all boys and girls from Kindergarten through 8th grade
who sign up to play.
The Travel program serves boys and girls
from age 9 through 13, with teams chosen from players who attend our
spring evaluation.
Our philosophy promotes teamwork, skills
development, fun and fitness without a focus on winning. Players from
Kindergarten through 8th grade need to develop personal and team
skills before beginning competitive play.
From the LSA By-Laws:
The purpose of this Association shall be to develop, promote and
administer the game of soccer among players within the town of
Longmeadow. It shall do so by providing a positive athletic
experience, teaching cooperation and team work, and improving
the individual skills of the players.
LSA is a member of the
Pioneer Valley Junior Soccer League and
Mass Youth Soccer.
