Soccer Leagues Managed by the most experienced soccer only organization in LIncoln.
1. Price - No memberships to buy or extra fees. One low fee pays for your entry and referee costs.
2. Size & field - Our full field is 180 x 89 for adult, highschool, and U13/14 leagues. U8-U12 leagues will be playing on a 87x89 sized field. Our previous facility reorganized to 138 x 85 full field with walls or half field of approximately 85 x 67. CSA also understands the communities concerns on how the turf was previously installed in past years. As part of our contract with Abbott the turf will be laid over a multi purpose "cushiony" "forgiving" sub-flooring. This is a much softer floor than has been in there in the past. Also new contractors who have previously installed sport turf will be installing the turf at this facility. As part of the league management agreement, CSA will oversee and sign off on the installation making sure the field is up to specifications of all of our nationally licensed select coaches.
4. Additional Incentive - Every high school registration will receive one hour of free indoor time in March to be used at your discretion (tryouts perhaps). So if your team sends 2 registrations for both sessions that is a total of 4 hours of free indoor time. What a great place to have your tryouts in early March. Plus we are giving 2 free sessions for every registration on our outdoor fields anytime in Spring. So 2 registrations per high school team, 2 seasons would equal 8 sessions of free outdoor time on real soccer fields. What a great way to prepare for a big game, districts....
5. Adult leagues being offered - Divisions for Mens Competitive/College, Mens Rec, Coed, and Woman's leagues.
6. We have no alcohol on our premises. This is a clean, fun, family environment.
7. Soccer people running soccer leagues - we understand your needs and will facilitate what it takes to create great leagues, good playing times, and great environments.
Adult and Youth registrations - every registration receives a free entry fee into our Lucky 7's 7v7 outdoor tournament being held 03/19 - 03/20, 2011 at Abbott Soccer Complex. This is a $250.00 value.
Days of league play for all groups are listed below. We have listed our primary nights of play and then 2 alternate days that may be used also for play in each group. If you have a special need or request please list it on your team registration sheet when you send your deposit and we will do our best to honor that. 6v6 play is full field.

CSA Club PlayersLead Teams To State Championships
Congratulations are in order for both the Lincoln East and Piusboys teams who played pivotal roles in bringingtwo state titles to Lincoln mid-week (Tuesday May 18).
InClass B, Pius X, led by Nebraska's 33 goal scoring sensation, Jake Ramsey (CSA Elite - formerly coached by Chris Hamburger and prior to that, Ben Damewood)won the final 1-0. They were anchored at the back by keeper Brian O'Neill, and defenders Kenton Salomons and Charlie Hinds, all CSA standouts. Four other CSA players also helped this year: Eric Pryor, Memo Haro, Austin Dao and Nick Verilek.
In Class A, Lincoln East, powered by no less than twelve CSA players, with oftenten or eleven on the field at once, won in dramaticfashion in extra time 4-2. The backfour of Dillon Wagner, David Cook, Sam Nobbe and Cole Kilgore acquitted themselves very well, providing freshman keeper, Mike Rilett, with great stability throughout the game. Defensively, the Man-of-the-Match was Sam Nobbe, who scored whatcould have been the best goal in Nebraska High School history, hitting a tough half volley afterwinning a thunderous tackle, springing Justin Hill on the left side, and sprinting into the box to receive Hill's service.
Attacking Man-of-the-Match had to be Kyle Nowka. Rudy Wagner's Chaos player was busy throughout, keeping possession and running miles, and it was most fitting that the game was put beyond doubt after he was hauled down after a mazy run into the Omaha South penalty box.Not only did he win the penalty, but he scored on a rocket from 33 yards to give East the decisive third goal.
Other CSA players who left their mark on the game were Mike Reckmeyer, Giulio Persello, Zach Kulawik, Ryan Bell and Tim Kubert.
Well done Pius X and Lincoln East!
