OUR STORY
About the Club

WE DON'T JUST
PLAY. WE BELONG.

Redding Youth Soccer League has been the home of youth soccer in Redding, California for generations of families.

We believe great coaches build more than great soccer players — they build confidence, friendships, and a lifelong love for the game. Our volunteers, parents, and coaches come together every season to create a positive, supportive environment where every player feels encouraged to learn, improve, and challenge themselves.

From the first kick at U6 to the competitive pathways of our Competitive Development Academy, we're committed to developing not only better athletes, but better teammates and people. Every dollar of registration goes back into creating the best possible experience — player insurance, uniforms, certified referees, field rentals, and our end-of-season tournament.

Community-Driven

Volunteer-run and family-powered. This is our house.
