Powered by GoogleMy daughter had so much fun that she cried when practice was over! She can't wait to go back next weekend. The coaches were enthusiastic, encouraging and patient and the whole day was very organized and well-run. So happy that we chose AYSO for her first soccer experience!
This is our first year with AYSO on the lakefront. I love that there are consistent weekly practices and that the kids are with the same team for the fall and the spring seasons (only have to sign up once). Communications from the league leadership is also top notch. It's a bit more competitive (higher skilled) with more resources than other rec leagues but at the same time not more intense. Younger kids are still learning the game and play is friendly. I would definitely recommend AYSO if you're looking for a bit more organization and competition.
AYSO 418 (Lakeshore) is a great program. Our son and daughter have been playing soccer here for 4 years and our experience has been excellent. It's a great way for kids to learn how to play soccer and the backdrop of the lake behind the fields is a cherry on top.
I am thoroughly impressed with this soccer organization. It is child centered and they promote positivity so wonderfully. We have been playing indoor and outdoor for years, and every year brings more growth. Our kiddo continues to love soccer and flourish through this organization. The coaches and refs lead with integrity and positivity as they kindly redirect during teachable moments. As a parent, it's so incredible to enjoy watching soccer at the beautiful lakefront in our gorgeous city. We know this takes a lot of time, energy, and passion behind the scenes. Keep spreading your goodness, AYSO418!
Every Saturday soccer was an absolute joy. Our granddaughter learned many basic skills from her enthusiastic coaches. AYSO is a well run organization with coaches who have fostered a tremendous love for soccer in this group of three to four year old children!
