2023 Fall Recreational Soccer

At the heart of the LMSA soccer program is the Recreational Division. LMSA has been serving the soccer playing youth and families of La Mirada since 2008. At the same time providing participation opportunities for all the other members of a family. Adults can volunteer to be a coach, asst coach, a team parent or even help administer the program by volunteering to help the Board of Directors as an assistant or even becoming a member. In addition, any family member, 14 years of age or older, can become an LMSA paid referee.

The program strives to ensure that every child can have the opportunity to experience the beautiful game of soccer in a fun safe and fair environment. LMSA program offers a low cost, low travel, low time commitment environment. While at the same time ensuring that all players in the U10 Divisions and younger are playing at least 1/2 of every game. U12 and above must play at least half of every game.

LMSA Soccer Seasons
We offer two (2) seasons for our Recreational Program. Our Fall soccer season runs from August to December while our Spring soccer season runs from February to May. Each program requires separate registration and fees.
Games during the Fall are played on Saturdays, while games during the Spring are played on Sundays. *Game days for U14 may be played on Saturday and/or Sunday.

Coaches and Team Parents
Our soccer program runs on the strength of its volunteers and the support of parents, family and the community. All of our coaches and team parents are volunteers. In order for all of our registered players to participate and get on the pitch, each team requires a head coach.
**If we do not have enough volunteer head coaches, we may need to turn players away.

Practices
  • Practice days/times are determined after all teams have been formed and each team has been assigned a head coach.
  • Team soccer practices are based on the schedule selected by the head coach (M/W or T/Th).
  • Please keep in mind practices may start as early as 5:00pm or as late as 6:30pm.
  • U6 Division practice once a week.
  • U10 and up have practices twice a week.
  • Lil Kickers practices are held on game day, 30 mins before the game. Lil kickers have a 1-hour time slot, 30 mins practice and 30 mins game time.

2023-2024 Fall and Spring Seasons; Divisions are based on player's BIRTH YEAR, NOT birth date or school grade; no exceptions.
  • Lil Kickers: 2020
  • U6: 2018-2019
  • U8: 2016-2017
  • U10: 2014-2015
  • U12: 2012-2013
  • U14: 2010-2011

U12 & U14 - Due to the number of registrations in these divisions, players might have to play in the JUSA league and may be required to travel for AWAY Games. Away games will be in neighboring cities such as Anaheim, Whittier, Placentia, Yorba Linda and possibly Long Beach.

Fall registration fees include uniform, standard picture packet and end of season awards.

All recreational teams are balanced as much as humanly possible to ensure all teams are competitive. Returning players are rated by their previous coach with input from other coaches in that division. New players are required to participate in a skills tryout day to be rated and put into the divisions pool. Lil Kickers and U6 divisions are not rated and do not have to attend evaluation day.

Although LMSA is considered recreational, there are playoffs and champions crowned locally every Fall for our U8, U10 and U12 divisions. 

Post-Season
During the post-season, teams that qualify by placing during the regular season (U10 & higher) may have the opportunity to participate in the Cal South Commissioner's Cup. In addition, players from our U10 and upper divisions may be selected to participate on the LMSA REC ALL–STAR teams. Selected players/teams will participate in the JUSA and/or Cal South Recreational Championship tournaments which are held in December and January.
