LUSA runs an 8 week program for players as an introduction to sports and soccer. The program runs once a week beginning of Fall, Winter and Spring seasons, usually on Saturday or Sunday afternoon / early evening. 

Each session will typically be 45 minutes of LUSA staff run programming with 15 minutes of “parent and player free time” prior to each session. (Example: If the session is scheduled for 1:15pm, Parent and Player Free Time is from 1:00pm – 1:15pm). 

Exact day/time/location is made available 2 weeks to program start. The program is coached and run by LUSA Staff Coaches with the assistance from some of our Youth players giving back to the game they’ve learned to love.

There is a requirement that parents partake in some of the activities, which would include keeping the ball within the playing area, motivating the players by cheering and encouraging. All programming is outdoors. 

LUSA runs the Active Start Program 3 times per year. Fall, Winter, and in the Spring.
