What is Shakopee Soccer Association?
The Shakopee Soccer Association (SSA) is a community-driven organization dedicated to fostering the development of youth soccer players in Shakopee, Minnesota, and its surrounding areas, for ages ranging from two to nineteen and beyond. Its core mission revolves around promoting competitive soccer while ensuring a positive and ethical playing environment. SSA aims to help young athletes grow both as individual players and as cohesive teams, emphasizing skill development in all phases of the game, including dribbling, passing, receiving, finishing, and defending. Beyond the technical aspects, the association also instills values like sportsmanship, teamwork, respect, and effective communication, creating a holistic approach to player development. SSA offers a comprehensive range of programs to cater to various skill levels and commitment levels, from recreational to highly competitive. This includes in-house recreational leagues focused on participation and introduction to the sport, as well as competitive teams that vie against other clubs in leagues like the Minnesota Youth Soccer Association (MYSA) and Twin Cities Soccer League (TCSL). The association is committed to providing education for coaches, referees, and players to enhance their understanding of the game and improve both individual and team skills. SSA also extends its reach to adult competitive programming, with teams participating in the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) and Women's Premier Soccer League (WPSL), demonstrating a commitment to growing the game at all levels within the community.
