The year 2009 is coming to an end and we must be thankful and proud for all the accomplishments of LSC players and families. This year turned out to be a record number of boys and girls participating in the beautiful game of soccer, starting at the age of 5 and going all the way to high school level.

The community is becoming more involved in the game of soccer and we are beginning to see results at the older age groups, Lansing soccer is growing and people are recognizing it.

Indoor soccer continues to be an excellent way to stay involved during the cold weather months and improve skills, this is all possible due to the good partners from SoccerZone and Lansing Indoor Sports Arena.

LSC in partnership with Michigan Chill, Lansing and Waverly High Schools will have two premier teams during the spring, our kids will be exposed to some of the best soccer in the state of Michigan.

Lastly, this would not be possible if it wasn't for the effort and enegry  given by all the volunteers who coach, manage, drive, tie shoe laces and all the other components that make this organization useful to our community.

LSC was founded over 10 years ago, many people have come and gone but to all who have been part of this dream we wish you an excellent year with happiness and health.

Happy new year 2010!!!

Fall soccer officially ended last week and for many kids and parents  this was the first opportunity to be exposed to a higher level of soccer and  to compete against  soccer teams  from many communities surrounding our city. We are very excited about the record amount of kids who participated this fall and of the development of soccer skills for many kids.

We had many successes and also many challenges as we continue to grow and expand as a club, at this level we are expected to continue to improve individually and as a team. Results sometimes are not the best evaluating tool but we all know that without victories people can tend to become impatient and critical.

On behalf of the LSC board of directors we thank all the coaches, managers and  families who continue  support and devote their time to making soccer in the city of Lansing an accessible sport to all.

Indoor soccer is a time for fun and important time to enhance skills by staying active and having lots of touches with the feet and ball. Once again we have a great amount of teams playing indoor soccer and we are thankful to SoccerZone and Mr. Derby at LISA for understanding the challenges of Lansing and finding ways to help us play indoor. This is a good time of the year to welcome new players, so let your friends and relatives know that LSC is a place to learn and have fun.

The following teams are available for the first indoor session:

• 4 teams for boys and girls under 6
• U-9 boys, U-9 girls
• U-10 boys, U-10 girls
• U-11 boys
• U-12 girls
• U-13 boys
• U-14 boys, U-14 girls
• High school boys, High school girls
• 2 teams for 30 and over(LSC Over The Hill) This is a great time for parents to become active members of the soccer world, hopefully staying healthy without injuries!!!
