The Southern Regional Soccer League is expected to become the highest level of league play in the southeast. The league in its first year will only be for U15 and U16 girls. In subsequent years the league will expand to girls and boys up to U18. The focus will be to provide a complete soccer experience, to get the best out of the players and teams and to expose the players to college coaches. Players will be given college recruiting seminars and exposed to colleges all over the east. Teams will play a minimum of 12 league games a year and as many as 10 tournaments, once a month. Travel will be year round with games on weekends in Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia. There will be at least 3-4 ‘travel’ events where the team will travel on a regional/national basis to compete in ‘College Show Case’ events including participation in the US Club Summer National Championships for successful teams.
The LNSC teams playing in the Southern Regional Soccer League will be known as the LNSC Carolina Eclipse. Each team will have a nationally qualified coach who will lead two to three training session per week working in conjunction with the Director of Coaching at LNSC. The coach will model a high level of leadership and possess the motivation and communication skills to motivate players to compete successfully at the highest levels of competition.
Each LNSC Carolina Eclipse team will be given the opportunity to play and compete at a regional/national level requiring players to possess strong technical skills and possess a good understanding of the tactical aspects of the game. Each player is expected to know and understand the various roles and responsibilities of different positions on the field and handle the more complex strategies of play. The teams will learn to master tactics of defending, midfield play and the attack.
