About EDINA SOCCER ASSOCIATION

Edina Soccer Association (ESA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth soccer organization incorporated in 1974 and based in Edina, Minnesota. It operates an inclusive, year-round recreational soccer program serving players from Pre-K through 12th grade and offers leagues, clinics, camps and adaptive/unified programming.

ESA is widely regarded as one of Minnesota’s largest community-based recreational soccer programs, emphasizing volunteer-driven coaching, skill development and broad access. Programming includes seasonal Spring/Summer leagues, a winter academy, youth contractor-led sessions, and a Unified/Adaptive track to support players with differing abilities.

In recent years ESA has sustained high participation and community support: in 2023 the organization reported more than 4,300 athlete registrations supported by roughly 500 volunteer coaches and 80 youth contractors, and it awarded about 120 financial-assistance scholarships. Fiscal-year filings for 2024 show program-focused revenue and activity consistent with an organization primarily funded by program services.
