History / Our Expectations
History
The Tri-Cities Soccer Association was founded in 1977 in partnership with our local park districts to provide a fun and healthy environment for the Fox Valley youth to play soccer. Over the years, it has grown to become one of the largest independent youth soccer organizations in Northern Illinois with over 200 teams. We strive to remain both a community-based club built on the amazing volunteer spirit of our families and strong relationships with the local park districts of Batavia, Geneva, St. Charles, South Elgin along with Campton Township.
The mission of TCSA is to provide instructional and competitive youth soccer opportunities for everyone, and to enhance the character, community, and love of the game of soccer. Our goals for all participants include building self-esteem, self-confidence, teamwork, respect for self and others, along with the inherent benefits of physical exercise. To maximize the experience for our 2,000 participants between the ages of 4 – 18 years old, our association is organized into three areas of participation: Recreational, Rec Plus, and TCFC Competitive.
