Founded 1995
All Ages & Skill Levels
The Grove City Youth Soccer Association (GCYSA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to growing the game of soccer in the Grove City area.
Since 1995, we’ve helped young athletes learn, compete, and thrive—both on and off the field—while building teamwork, sportsmanship, and confidence.
GCYSA offers programs for players of all ages and skill levels, from fun introductory and recreational leagues for our youngest players to competitive travel teams
for those ready to challenge themselves at a higher level. No matter where a player starts, there’s a place for them to grow here.
At the heart of GCYSA is a simple goal: inspire a lifelong love for the game.
Along the way, we emphasize physical fitness, mental discipline, and character development—creating an environment where players develop not only as athletes,
but as individuals and teammates.
What makes GCYSA different
We’re powered by volunteers and built on values—respect, integrity, and perseverance—so every child has a positive place to learn and belong.
Our success is driven by the dedication of our volunteer coaches, board members, and families, who work together to provide a positive,
rewarding soccer experience for every child. We’re committed to supporting each player’s development, regardless of background or ability.
Sportsmanship and fair play are core values at GCYSA. Soccer is a powerful tool for teaching respect, accountability, and perseverance—lessons that extend far beyond the field.
As an active member of the local and regional soccer community, GCYSA participates in events and competitions throughout Pennsylvania and beyond.
We collaborate with other clubs and organizations to provide meaningful playing opportunities and experiences.
Beyond the game, GCYSA is deeply connected to Grove City. Through outreach initiatives and partnerships with local schools, organizations, and businesses,
we promote healthy lifestyles and work to expand access to soccer for area youth.
As we continue to grow, GCYSA remains focused on what matters most:
creating a welcoming, inclusive soccer community where every player has the opportunity to learn, compete, and enjoy the game.
We’re proud of the impact we’ve made—and excited for what’s ahead.
