Join Rec or Rec Plus for Summer 2026!
Youth Soccer League

Faith East Community Center is excited to provide two youth soccer leagues (spring and summer) that are available to everyone in the community.

NEW FOR SUMMER 2026 - You can choose to participate in Rec soccer (Saturday only) or Rec Plus soccer (up to 3 activities per week)! We are excited to continue offering our "one-stop-shop" approach to Saturday only soccer while also giving families the opportunity to continue participating in soccer at Faith with a slightly elevated focus on individual and team improvement!

Philosophy

We want to use soccer as a way to instill character traits, heart attitudes, and soccer skills that will honor God on the field and in all of life's situations.

League Information

LeagueApps is the website we use to run our community leagues. Please download and use the LeagueApps Play app (free) for league schedules and communication!

Practices & Expectations:

All players are expected to attend practices in order to play in the games. If players attend practice, they should receive at least 50% of playing time in their game.

We suggest that each child have soccer cleats (rubber cleats, no toe cleat) but soccer shoes are not required. Shin guards are required for safety.

We also suggest that each child bring their own water bottle and soccer ball.

Coaching

Are you interested in helping players have fun while learning the rules, strategies, and fundamentals of the game of soccer? Are you passionate about encouraging players how to focus on important life skills and character traits such as responsibility, teamwork, communication, and leadership? We need your help to make this league successful!

Coaches have first ability to ref games for teams not in their division. Referees are paid per game so this is a great way to ensure your child essentially receives free soccer!

Referees

With adding a Rec Plus league, we now have need for referees in all 3 Rec Plus Divisions: U8, U10, and U13. If you are interested in refereeing for our league, please contact Dave Esgar (765) 449-3740.
