Based on past experience, we recommend teams to register a minimum of 15 players per teams to allow for players not available on game day (work, red card, injury, vacation, …). Players are to share the time as equally as possible.

***covid 19 update: the roster size might be limited this year to accomodate the cohort size regulations as provided by AHS.

In the coed league, if you do not have a team, we will assign you to one. The team assignment is fairly straightforward.  we try to make team as even as possible in terms of strengths and gender. This process can take some time but you will be notified no later than a week before the start of the season. If you request to play with somebody you know we will try our best to accommodate your request (not a problem usually unless the team is full).

No. Because of Covid 19 cohort group rules, we will not allow subs/trialists of any kind.

Depending on the number of teams, the length of the season for EDSA will vary (between 14-16 weeks usually).

Insurance is provided through the Alberta Soccer Association insurance policy (policy “here“). Contact the coed league director as soon as possible to learn the insurance claim process.

Yes we do!!! The Leduc Adult Coed league (LACL) has been chosen to represent the battle soccer district at provincials. The league sends a male team and a female team to Tier 3 provincials each season. This is a very competitive competition and only the best players will be selected to represent the league at provincials. Players selected to play in provincials will split the cost of registering the team (usually around $500) to the competition among themselves. Players registered to both edsa and LACL are not eligible to go to provincial through the coed league (however they can still go through their edsa team).

***edit covid 19, no provincial tournament scheduled

Whether you want to register a coed team within the LACL or start a team in EDSA (women’s, master’s, classic’s, a men’s team, …) and be part of the Leduc Adult Soccer club Family, let us know how we can support you with your project. We look forward to hear from you.

There is absolutely NO SLIDE TACKLING, even by the keeper. ‘Slide Tackling’ is defined as “A tackle in soccer in which a player attempts to disrupt the play, or take possession of the ball away from an opponent with neither foot planted on the ground – sliding with one or both legs extended to block or push the ball away from an opposing player.” The slide tackle is committed against an opponent where the ball is within playing distance. Slide tackling is punished with a caution. The restart is an indirect free kick to the opposition from where the offence occurred. What is allowed (When done in a safe manner) :

• Lunging or reaching for a ball with one foot planted.
• Sliding to play or block a ball where no opponent is involved.
• Playing the ball from the ground from a stationary position.
• Jumping for a ball with neither foot on the ground.
