Welcome to Hot Springs Soccer
Greetings, and welcome to the official website for the Hot Springs Soccer Association.   We are a recreational program located in Hot Springs, Arkansas.   We currently field teams in the U-6 through U-18 age groups.   Our program is a member of the Arkansas State Soccer Association, and our travelling teams schedule their games through the Central Arkansas Soccer Association. We invite you to surf around our site, but please don't forget to sign  our guestbook before you leave.   Thanks for visiting!

Simple Soccer for Parents
This is the place for anyone that would like some help to learn more about soccer--presented in a very simple way. Great stuff!

Click here for an excellent website that explains soccer in simple terms.

Click here to go to a pretty comprehensive soccer glossary.   See how much you already know!

Click here for a nice little explanation of offside. It's a clear explanation of a rule that is probably the most misunderstood and frustrating in soccer!

Munro Field Layout
The U-9/10 field is on your left side as you enter the field area.
Players on the U-11/12 fields will now be on the North (road) side of the field, and parents will be on the South side, the opposite of previous seasons. Designations for players and parent sides on all of our U-9 and above fields are on the map below.

The full size field remains unchanged.

The HSSA is also working on a sponsorship program for our fields. Two of our U6 fields have been sponsored by Simmons 1st Bank and Stephens, Inc. Thanks to these community partners for stepping up and helping our soccer program. If you know of other local businesses that may want to help the HSSA, please let us know!

Fields are closed for the Summer, but the grass is growing and the fields are being sanded to improve their quality this coming season!

MicroSoccer Fields: Closed for Summer

U-9/10 Field:    Closed for Summer

U-11/12 Field:    Closed for Summer

Full Size Field:    Closed for Summer

We do live in Arkansas, where the weather changes every 10 minutes or so.   Please check this site, contact the Hot Springs coach, or call the HSSA info line at 501-276-8257 in the event of rain or other bad weather


As a general rule of thumb, check with the Hot Springs coach if it rains 1 inch or more within 12 hours of the start of a scheduled game.

Directions to Soccer Fields in Hot Springs
Directions to the various soccer fields in Hot Springs. Please confirm which field you are playing at, as it is quite a time consuming drive between each location!

Munro Fields, Hot Springs

From Little Rock, take I-30 west (towards Texarkana). Continue on I-30 to Malvern. Take exit 98B (Highway 270 West). After 10 miles or so, you will pass through a traffic light, and soon after you will see Buddy Bean Lumber on your left side. Right after Buddy Bean, you will see the Hot Springs Soccer sign, also on the left, in front of the Lake Catherine Footwear Factory. Turn left into the parking lot, and you will see the soccer field entrance on the far left side of the parking lot as you face the building. If you come to a second traffic light, you have just passed the fields, so turn around.

Kimery Park, Hot Springs

From Little Rock, take I-30 west (towards Texarkana). It will be a far easier and quicker trip to the field by NOT getting off at the Hot Springs exit, and continuing on I-30 to Malvern. Exit at Highway 270 west (towards Hot Springs). Continue on 270 west until you come to the 1st traffic light (approximately 12 to 15 miles). Turn left at the light, which actually keeps you on Highway 270 west. Continue on 270 west to the McLeod Street exit. Turn right onto McLeod, and continue about 1/2 mile to the 1st street on your left (Leonard Street). Turn left, onto Leonard, and proceed again to the 1st left, which is Kimery Lane. Turn left and proceed up the steep hill. The soccer field is on your right as you enter the park. There are restrooms available.

Linden Park, Hot Springs

From Little Rock, take I-30 west (towards Texarkana). Take exit 111 (highway 70) towards Hot Springs. Proceed along Highway 70 for approximately 18 miles. As you enter into town, the name of the road changes to Grand Avenue. Note--be careful on Grand as the speed limit slows considerably. Proceed along Grand through several traffic lights until you come to Central Avenue. Turn right and proceed along Central Avenue, past the bathhouses and the Arlington Hotel. Stay in the left lane, approximately ½ mile past the Arlington, you will turn left at Whittington avenue. There is a nice fountain that you can use as a landmark. Proceed along Whittington, and it will become divided. Just past the tourist businesses you will see on your right, you will see a sign for Linden Park. Turn right, proceed up the hill and you have arrived. Restrooms and a shaded pavilion are available.

The Beautiful Game

A beautiful clip comparing a famous length of the field run and goal by Maradona and a recent one by Messi. Fun to watch!
