Since 1972, the Elkhorn Soccer Club has been built on Nebraska values such as: integrity, respect, selflessness, work ethic and grit. The majority of our coaches, administrators, and supporters were born and raised in Nebraska and have used these values to develop our organization for more than 50 years. Those who have joined our EAA family from other areas come from similar backgrounds, and have embraced these values in their lives and their work within our club.
With the ever-changing and ultra-competitive landscape of youth sports programs across the country, we strive to lead the way in bringing player-centered decision-making and grassroots development back to youth athletics. We have an unwavering commitment to providing pathways for all children to reach their potential on the field and throughout their lives.
We are proud Nebraskans! We are proud of our ROOTS!
