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!

*If you missed the registration deadline, please email Dave Esgar with your child's Name, DOB, Shirt Size, League (Rec or Rec Plus), and Division (U6, U8, U10, U13) and Dave will see if we have a spot available to add your child!

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.

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!

Sign up today to help coach in either the spring or summer league: Visit our coaching page >

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.

"I want to applaud you on a job well done organizing the soccer league, and a standing ovation to your communications and updates. It’s probably the best communication I have experienced in youth organized sports and is very much appreciated."
- Brian Kain

"The most enjoyable soccer experience that we’ve ever had came from finding out about Faith’s program! It is the perfect program for busy family, and non-busy families alike. Show up a half hour before game for a practice that then flows into a one hour game where they can practice the skills they've just learned. It amazes us also how efficient this program is ran. Unfortunately, our grandson, whom we’re guardians of, has aged out after this year, but we will forever be grateful for this program. He has loved it and so have we!"
- Warren and Alicia Gephart

"We have been a part of the Faith soccer leagues for the last 2 almost 3 years and we absolutely LOVE it! Saturdays are our favorite day during soccer season, even the 8AM games during the summer session! It was something our family looked forward to every weekend and our son enjoyed making new friends and having his dad as his coach! I encourage those who are interested in signing their child up for a Faith league sport to definitely do so! You won’t regret it :)"
- Joselyn Garduño

"We have had a wonderful experience with both the fall and spring soccer leagues! We love Faith Community Sports because it gives our child a low-pressure, joyful place to learn and play soccer. The league is so well organized, with fantastic communication, and it truly lets kids develop enjoyment for the sport without the stress. We’ve been part of the soccer program for five years now, and it’s something our family looks forward to every spring and fall."
