Laurelhurst Soccer Club
Fall Program (1st Grade - 8th Grade)
Laurelhurst Soccer Club promotes the game of youth recreational soccer through player development and coach education in a safe, inclusive, affordable and fun environment. Each year, we offer our Spring Program (April-May), Summer Camps (June-July) and Fall Program (August-October) for players Pre-K - 8th Grade.
Pre-K & Kindergarten players participate in our Kinder Kickers Program (U5-U6) which is comprised of fun, weekly sessions on Friday evenings that include activities and games that build technical foundations of soccer.
1st-8th Grade players participate in our U7-U14 Program which includes games through the PYSA League. It's a great fit for beginners, as well as those looking to continue to develop their skills in a fun, encouraging environment. Players are divided into teams by gender/grade and often have opportunities to play with other kids from their class at school. Players do not need to live in the Laurelhurst neighborhood, or attend Laurelhurst Elementary to join our club.
Join us for the Fall 2024 Laurelhurst Soccer Club Season!

Volunteer to Coach
- Each of our teams are coaches by our amazing group of parent volunteers and we'd love to have you be involved in the 2024 Spring season. Whether your player is new to the club or returning, it’s a great opportunity to invest in your local community and help enhance your child's soccer experience. Each team requires a Head Coach, Assistant Coach and ideally a Team Manager.
- To register and learn more about the commitment, login to your member account, then click Volunteer Opportunities and Find Volunteer Roles. Please plan to sign up as soon as possible.
- If you have any questions, or would like to inquire if your player's team is in need of volunteers, please reach out at [email protected]. Optional training provided to those new to coaching.
Policies & Financial Assistance
- Team / Teammate Request Policy: All players are placed on teams on a first come, first serve basis. If players were not placed on the team they requested, it is likely that team was full by the time they registered. If they were unable to be rostered on their team from last season, we’ve done our best to place players with previous teammates and/or players from the same school. Early registration recommended if you are looking to be placed on your team from Spring 2024 or Fall 2023. We will do our best to accommodate all team/coach requests, but there is no guarantee that they will be fulfilled.
- Refund Policy: 75% refund before registration deadline, 50% refund on or after registration deadline, no refunds on/after schedule posted.
- Financial Aid: Financial Aid is available for qualifying families. Please contact [email protected] to apply. Financial Aid does not cover uniforms.

Uniforms
The uniform can be purchased and picked-up at Tursi Soccer. Players from U7-U14 (1st to 8th Grade) are required to wear the LSC uniform to all games. The uniform consists of a purple jersey, black shorts and black socks. Players are welcome to select any jersey number they’d like. The uniform is the same as previous seasons, so old uniforms can be reused.
Please plan to purchase your players uniform as early as possible to ensure it is available for pick up or delivery by the first game (April 6).
*These items are not required to be purchased through Tursis, but LSC families can use code CLUB15 to get 15% off retail items including balls, shoes, gloves, shinguards, jackets and more.
