The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.

Growing the Game

Welcome to Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer, where our passion for soccer goes beyond the field. We don't just promote the game; we "grow the game." Imagine a world where soccer is not just a sport for the privileged but an opportunity for every child, regardless of their background. Through our dedicated Grow the Game initiatives, we are on a mission to transform this vision into reality.

Affordability and Equity for All
At the heart of our initiative lies a simple yet powerful question: How would the game of soccer change if it were affordable for everyone? Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer believes that soccer should be accessible to all, breaking down economic barriers that often limit participation. By addressing financial constraints, we aim to open doors and create equal opportunities for children across our state association.  

Community-Centric Approach

Our commitment goes beyond words—we are taking action by bringing resources directly to underserved communities throughout Eastern Pennsylvania. We understand that the lack of resources should never be a hindrance to a child's passion for soccer. Through strategic partnerships, sponsorships, and community engagement, we are actively working to bridge the gap and ensure that every child has the chance to experience the joy of the beautiful game.  

Increasing Participation and Experiences

Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer is not just about increasing the number of players on the field; it's about enhancing the overall soccer experience. Our Grow the Game initiatives focus on providing comprehensive support, including coaching clinics, equipment donations, and facility upgrades. By investing in the development of both players and coaches, we are nurturing a sustainable soccer culture that thrives in all communities.  

A Game for All Kids  
Our ultimate goal is to make soccer a game for all kids. We believe that the benefits of playing soccer—such as teamwork, discipline, and a healthy lifestyle—should be accessible to everyone. By removing financial and resource barriers, we are leveling the playing field and ensuring that every child, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to build lifelong skills through the beautiful game.
