Colorado EDGE Soccer Club is excited to announce our acceptance into the Elite Academy League (EA League) and joining the Southwest Desert Conference beginning in the 2023-2024 season.
With the ever changing youth soccer landscape in Colorado and throughout the country, we are taking the next steps as a club to be progressive and expand on our club’s success over the past years, both on and off of the field. This is a testament to all of our players, teams, coaches and families across all ages and levels within our club. The EA League is a boys only national platform consisting of over 80 youth soccer clubs across the country that will provide our Select teams with quality competition regionally in Colorado, Arizona and Utah, but also on a national stage through additional National events, Showcase events, and Talent ID programs. In addition, it will provide all levels of players and coaches in the club a clear pathway in achieving their highest playing and coaching potential. Our Select teams will continue to compete in the CSA league, but will also represent EDGE at the National level with the addition of the EA League. The EA League runs September - May (U13-U14 Boys) and November - May (U15-U19 Boys) and there will be no conflicts with High School soccer. A National Championship occurs in June if a team qualifies based on the EA League conference standings.
In the coming weeks, we will be announcing more details about the league, conference play, calendar, events, costs, balancing CSA league play and EA League play, tryouts and other pertinent information. We will also be holding a “town hall” event to answer any and all questions. Keep an eye out for future emails and social media postings for up to date information.
In addition to our Boys program joining a National platform, our Girls program has received attention from National leagues and we will be making an exciting announcement about our Girls program in the near future. Momentous times ahead for our club which has all been made possible through the hard work both on and off of the field by all of our players, coaches, families and staff!
