Please take a moment to read all the information below.
The LFL indoor season is divided in 2 sessions, Winter l and Winter ll.
· Winter l October 24- December 18

The focus of our LFL programs is to help in the development of children's soccer and social skills.
Sports like soccer should encourage people to have a positive attitude. We believe that we can make an impact in the children's behavior and have high standards for our players and parents. Unsportsmanlike conduct like bad language, disrespectful towards anyone are NOT ALLOWED at any of the LFL activities.
Please share this information with anyone that may be interested.
Blessings!
