United Academy

The LSC United Academy will have teams at U8, U9, and U10 competing in leagues based in Fort Collins and playing against other youth teams around the area. Teams will train two times per week and play games on weekends. The aim of the program is to prepare players for travel soccer by giving them an introduction to competitive soccer outside of an intramural program. All players will follow a soccer specific curriculum throughout the season, which is designed to provide players with all the skills and techniques required to play soccer at a competitive level as they go through the LSC Player Pathway.

In the event play in the Fort Collins league becomes unavailable, the season will be supplemented with other competitive soccer experiences which could include internal small sided games, skill and team camps, drop-in soccer opportunities, and playing other local Wyoming/regional clubs. 

There are two seasons for this league, Fall (August-October) and Spring (March-May). Players register for both seasons. Some teams may also elect to attend tournaments in Wyoming, Colorado or other states in the region. Fees for tournaments are in addition to league registration fees.

Fees for 2026/2027 are $590. This will register your player for both fall and spring and includes technical training sessions with our Director of Coaching. Uniforms are an additional fee, but some of the cost is offset by our early registration discount for players signed up by August 1.

LSC Travel

U11 - U14

The LSC Travel program has teams age U11-U14 competing in leagues based in Colorado, and playing against other youth teams in our region. This group will have the largest travel commitment as far as distance traveled to games, but will also play half of their games at home. Travel teams play in the Colorado Soccer Association Advanced (Centennial) leagues.

In the event play in the Colorado league becomes unavailable, the season will be supplemented with other competitive soccer experiences which could include internal small sided games, skill and team camps, drop-in soccer opportunities, and playing other local Wyoming/regional clubs. 

Players in the travel league commit to play two seasons of soccer, both the Fall and Spring season. Travel players usually begin practice with their teams towards the end of July and play together until the first part of November. Most teams continue with some sort of practice schedule through December and participate in the Cowboy Turf Wars tournament. Travel teams will begin practice for the Spring season in mid-February and run through May. If the team chooses to play tournaments in the summer, practices may run longer into the summer. Fees for tournaments are in addition to league registration fees.

The fee for 2026/2027 will be $775.

U15 - U19 Girls

The LSC Travel program U15-U19 also offers an option for High School Girls to play a Fall only league so that they can play High School soccer in the spring. Same information as LSC Travel for U11-U14, just in a Fall only format.

The fee for fall 2026 will be $440.

U15 - U19 Boys

LSC Travel offers a program for U15-U19 Boys. This program will play during Fall only. This group will participate in a 7v7 league with teams in the region, as well as some friendly games with Scottsbluff and Fort Collins.

The fee for fall 2026 will be $240.

Rec Plus Players

The LSC Rec Plus Program is designed for players who are working on building their soccer skills so that they can move into a competitive soccer team in the future, and is open to U10-U11 players (4th Grade and 5th Grade). There will be a few travel games to Cheyenne to play friendly games in their recreational league. Players will benefit from quality coaching and training and get a better sense if they wish to continue playing competitive soccer. Players may be invited to play in optional tournaments with a team if the coach determines they are ready to participate and there is room on the tournament roster.

Uniform purchase is not required, but will be needed if the player elects to play in the optional team tournaments.

Fees for 2026/2027 are set at $150 for the fall program.
