LASC utilizes a method of parent and volunteer coaches assisted by professional trainers.  Our coaches are LASC certified and licensed by the Illinois Youth Soccer Association (www.iysa.org) for their respective age groups.  Many of our coaches have played or are still playing competitive level soccer. Our coaching staff is dedicated and committed to player skill development and teaching team play.   

Each team is staffed with: 

Head Coach – Each team will have a head coach who is responsible for player and overall team development. 

Assistant Coach – Each team may have one or two assistant coach(s) who assist and support the head coach. 

Trainer – Each team will have a professional trainer who will provide players with technical and tactical skills training in coordination with the coaches. 

Summer Camp & Skills Clinics

LASC hosts the leading internationally recognized Coerver Soccer Camp in mid-August at Millburn Central School Soccer Fields.  The Coerver Camp is the leading player development camp in the world and is made available to LASC players for a substantially reduced fee.  

LASC offers a number of skill development and athletic training clinics during the year.  These programs are open exclusively to LASC players and are focused on developing soccer player athletic skills.

Expectations

In general, teams train twice weekly (90 minutes per session) and all players are expected to attend a minimum of two team-training sessions each week. Each team’s training schedule will be established by the head coach. The training sessions will take place in the Lindenhurst Area at local parks or school grounds.
